Abstract
A mounting bracket for securing an electronic label to the front of a store display shelf. The bracket is a one-piece metal sheet formed to provide a central body portion with clips for securing the electronic label. An upper support member extends rearwardly from the upper edge of the body portion and has shelf-engaging lugs adapted to be received in selected ones of regularly spaced openings in the shelf. A spring clip extends rearward from the bottom edge and resiliently and/or frictionally engages bottom contours of the shelf, to secure the bracket at the front edge of the shelf. The bracket is considerably less expensive and easier to install then conventional devices for this purpose, which typically extend the full length of a display shelf.
