  • Patent number: 4403000
    Abstract: The present invention is a method for forming a cohesive display object and associated display items. The invention contemplates a display object which is at least partially covered with flock (crushed fiberous material, such as rayon) and at least one display item which back side is at least partially covered with flock. The method comprises the steps of coating at least part of the surface of the display object and the back of the display item with a non-drying adhesive; then covering the coated surface with flock. Contact of the adjacent flock-coated surfaces of the display object and items will create a cohesive force and removably secure the display item to the display object.
