Abstract
A video display screen is held by an elongated holding bracket that has a inwardly extending flange at a distal end of the bracket. The flange fits into a groove extending along the edges of the screen to hold the screen. The bracket is fastened to a support structure. The interior surface of the bracket is advantageously inclined at an angle so the interior surface does not block the light from the projected image, and also has a plurality of grooves to reflect any light incident on the surface away from the screen. In further embodiments, the flange comprises a removable channel section that extends on opposing sides of the screen to hold the screen, with the channel being held against the bracket by a leaf spring.
