A gravity-feed storage and delivery rack includes upstanding support frames and a plurality of vertically-spaced shelf frames mounted between the support frames by means of mounting clips which have prongs receivable in complementary apertures in the columns of the support frames. The clips are channel-shaped along their entire length, the channel side walls having inclined retaining surfaces thereon which cooperate with the associated support column to form a notch providing a wedge-fit for a side rail of the shelf frame. Each shelf frame side rail is provided with a plurality of apertures adjacent to the rear end thereof for receiving a stop pin which projects laterally therefrom for engagement with the rear columns of the support frames to facilitate front-to-back adjustment of the shelf frames with respect to the rack. A mezzanine construction is disclosed having stacked racks with vertical-column support frames and front-to-back staggered shelf frames.
