Abstract
A shipping rack is provided which protects easily damaged articles of manufacture during transit. The shipping rack comprises one or more of tiers of vertically spaced apart shelves which are fabricated of a pliable stretchable cloth. The vertical distance between each pair of vertically adjacent shelves is slightly greater than the thickness of the article of manufacture to be loaded thereon to result in stretching of the shelves when an article of manufacture is loaded thereon into contact with an article of manufacture located onto a lower shelf to steady the load on the rack and prevent damage to the articles of manufacture.
