Abstract: Art work matting in the form of one or more elongated overlay parts of a light weight, low density, easily cuttable matting material, such as foam polystyrene, having a bevelled edge and a layer of sheet decorative material, such as marbled paper, covering and bonded to the bevel edge and portions of the front and back surfaces of the overlay strip extending immediately adjacent the bevelled edge. The overlay parts can be cut into sections which are fitted together with mitered or butt joints to form a rectangular overlay having an opening corresponding to the desired display portion of the art work. When a window board having an opening generally coinciding with the overlay opening is placed over the overlay, only the angular surface of the bevelled edge covered with a decorative material is exposed, giving the appearance of a decorative fillet bordering the display portion of the art work.

Abstract: The mount for removably supporting art work, photographs and similar articles on a support medium includes an elongated strip of heavyweight, non-acidic paper which has an elongated score line dividing the strip into a stationary section and a foldable section. The stationary section has a film of adhesive covered by a peel-off sheet for securing the stationary section to a support medium. The foldable section is folded over toward the stationary section to form a pocket for firmly receiving a peripheral portion of the article.
