Abstract
A display system adapted for use in combination with one or more electronic display tags is provided and includes a mounting panel having a plurality of openings therein forming at least one line of spaced openings. A conductive member is positioned adjacent the mounting panel and extends along at least a portion of the line of spaced openings. An elongated peg hook frame has a display end and an attachment end. The peg hook frame includes an elongated product support adapted at its front end to receive products for support and display thereof, and an elongated information display support having an attachment surface at its front end for receiving an electronic display tag. The rear end of the peg hook frame includes at least one hook-type member which is positioned within one of the spaced openings of the mounting panel. A coil is positioned at the rear end of the peg hook frame so as to be proximate to the conductive member for inductive coupling therewith and may be wound about a magnetic core for increasing such inductive coupling.
