Abstract
Self-supporting signs and methods of manufacturing are provided. One self-supporting sign includes a generally planar base portion and a generally planar upper portion extending from the base. The upper portion is foldable relative to the base about a fold line for movement between a storage configuration in which the base and upper portions are generally coplanar and a use configuration in which the base is generally horizontal and the upper portion is raised relative to the base. Only folding about the fold line is necessary to move from the storage configuration to the use configuration, and the base and upper portions are sufficiently rigid such that the upper portion remains at the use configuration after being moved to the use configuration. At least one of the base portion and the upper portion has a removable section independently usable for carrying data.
