Abstract: An award plaque including a picture display assembly, on the top surface of which organizational and individual identifying data may be disposed and a securely retained three-dimensional emblem may be mounted. The mounting of the emblem fixes the emblem in place on the plaque and is hidden from view and inaccessible after the plaque is completely assembled to prevent loss or casual pilferage of the emblem. On the bottom surface of the plaque, a wall hanger and easel stand are provided.

Abstract: A front-loading picture frame assembly of the box type which includes a top panel having openings through one or more of which pictures can be inserted. The openings are spaced sufficiently closely that the pictures when inserted can be manipulated into positions in which each picture is framed by an opening. The openings may be of any desired shape and distributed across the panel symmetrically or otherwise. Behind the top panel is a backing system including a resilient layer which urges the pictures into frictional engagement with said top panel. The backing member may also include pressure-distributing cuts which equalize pressure upon the pictures. The frame may also include an easel stand or a hanging member. A separate decorative outer enclosing frame may be used in place of the simpler box type enclosure.
