Abstract

A collapsible panel display composed of a plurality of panels hingedly connected together along integral hinge forming bridges, the display being formed from a single length of honeycomb sheeting covered with a flexible facing material, such as a fabric adapted to be engaged by a Velcro type fastener, the hinge forming bridges being defined by sets of spaced apart score lines, the honeycomb sheeting being crushed to essentially flat condition in the areas of the score lines and only partially crushed in the areas between the sets of score lines, the hinge forming bridges being contoured to define oppositely directed arcuate surfaces, the panel display including locking elements adapted to engage adjoining panels to detachably secure them in fixed relation to each other.
