         2 . The rack system claimed in  claim 1  having a second shelf which is parallel to said first shelf. 
     
     
         3 . The rack system claimed in  claim 1  including a third shelf attached to said back at a third hole and fourth hole and a third column of holes and a fourth column of holes;
 wherein said third hole is adjacent said second hole and wherein said fourth hole is lower than said third hole.   
     
     
         4 . The rack system claimed in  claim 3  further comprising a fourth shelf parallel to said third shelf. 
     
     
         5 . The rack system claimed in  claim 1  wherein said first shelf is curved. 
     
     
         6 . The rack system claimed in  claim 2  further comprising a vertical divider between said first and second shelves. 
     
     
         7 . The rack system claimed in  claim 2  further comprising first and second side walls connecting said first and second shelves. 
     
     
         8 . A display rack system comprising a back wall adapted to be attached to a display case and resting on a base;
 said back wall having first and second columns of uniformly spaced holes;   a box member having an upper wall and lower wall and sidewalls and an open front and first and second clips attached to first and second holes in said first and second columns of holes;   wherein said first hole is a greater distance from said base than said second hole.   
     
     
         9 . The rack system claimed in  claim 8  wherein said first and second walls are curved and parallel to each other. 
     
     
         10 . The rack system claimed in  claim 9  further comprising a second box adjacent said first box and fixed to a second back wall. 
     
     
         11 . The rack system claimed in  claim 10  wherein said first box curves upwardly away from said base and said second box curves downwardly toward said base. 
     
     
         12 . A produce display rack mounted in a refrigerated display case said rack having a base and a back wall extending upwardly from said base,
 a first shelf fixed to said back wall and extended curvilinearly across said back wall.   
     
     
         13 . A produce display rack claimed in  claim 12  further comprising a second shelf parallel to said first shelf. 
     
     
         14 . A produce display rack as claimed in  claim 13  further comprising a third shelf adjacent said first shelf and a fourth shelf adjacent said second shelf. 
     
     
         15 . The rack claimed in  claim 14  further comprising a vertical divider between said first and second shelves.
