Amphitheater display

Abstract

An improved, variably sized display unit for displaying small merchandise in bays which are created against a wall or partition is disclosed. The wall is created from a series of sections to provide a variably sized display. Display dividers are used for creating the bays. The bays are formed by dividers constructed of pairs of angularly arranged vertical panels which are hingedly connected to one another and which are also secured to the wall at spaced intervals along the wall. A principal header extends along the upper periphery of the rear wall and functions to cover up and conceal mismatches between the rear wall sections and, optionally to support placards or other information bearing devices. The principal header is mounted adjustably at the wall to ensure that it can be mounted to be horizontally level regardless of the orientation of the wall itself. Additionaly, each rear wall section is constructed with reinforcement members which are designed with U-shaped channels, open toward the backside of the wall to guarantee that no interference is encountered from the reinforcement means and that a greater area of the rear wall is available for display purposes. The display unit includes, additionally, end caps for covering and concealing the hinged edges of the panels which make up the display dividers.
