Abstract
By providing a plurality of interconnected, arcuately cooperating panels and end closures which are foldable into an overlying, interleaved, stacked configuration and, when desired, capable of being automatically erected into a three-dimensional display system, a unique, exciting three-dimensional pop-up system is provided. In order to provide the automatic, self-erecting feature, a spring member is mounted in the display system interleaved with the panels and end closures. In addition, the outer surfaces of the panels may incorporate any desired printed indicia, in order to produce a display system having any desired message or appearance.
