Abstract

Support hook(s) incorporating a display adjunct. The hook is fabricated from a flat sheet of material. The material is transparent and is capable of a high degree of flexing without breaking. Double-sided tape is employed to mount the sheet on a flat, vertical surface such as a wall or door. The sheet is sized to neatly press a display against the vertical surface. The display may take the form of a photograph, an advertisement, a message, or the like. The display can be easily changed without causing the double-sided mounting tape to release. The hook is designed to support a load of pre-determined maximum weight. If the pre-determined weight is exceeded, the hook will bend (without breaking) to release the load. A frame is provided to be removably disposed over the wall or door mounted sheet.
