Locker display case

Abstract

A locker display case is modeled after a sports locker and includes a traditional grated door. The inside is suitable for displaying team jerseys, equipment, or other memorabilia. Inside the “locker”, an angled shelf is positioned to display printed material or other memorabilia. Below, drawers provide storage. On one external side, a number of pivotable/hinged, vertical display racks are provided which allows flat items of sports memorabilia (such as posters, banners, and the like) to be stored and displayed, while the other external side has a number of adjustable shelves that can be configured in numerous arrangements. Optionally, the adjustable shelves may include a glass front. In a preferred embodiment, the entire display case is made from wood or wood-like material, though other materials may be used.
