An articulated display has at least two substrates including a first substrate attached to a second substrate. The first substrate has joints opposing and corresponding to joints on the second substrate. At least one plastically bendable, generally flat, reinforcing plate is disposed to cross at least one of the joints and is disposed between the first and second substrates. The reinforcing plate is used for bending the substrates at the joints with the reinforcing plate(s) into a bent configuration and holding the bent configuration.

The present invention discloses a connector used to join two or more panels having a foam core and having a cavity defined in a edge thereof. The connector includes a connector body having at least two attachment heads which are dimensioned to fit snugly within the corresponding cavities bounded by internal sidewalls defined in the foam core. Barbs provided on each attachment head are configured to pierce the internal sidewalls of the panels and inhibit withdrawal of the attachment head from the cavity defined in the foam core.
