Abstract

A poster display and kit therefor provides an inexpensive point-of-sale advertising poster, with stiffening ribs which hold opposite vertical edges of the poster planar thereby preventing rolling or curling. Two telescoping sections with a rubber band stop provide an adjustable vertical pole support for the poster which may be attached thereto with adhesive strip. The pole of the poster display is held in an upright position by securing it to a cardboard, corrugated cut-case, or wire merchandising display using one or more specialized straps which encircle the lower pole section and hold the same to the cardboard merchandise container with an arrowhead tab, gummed plate, or, when the same is attached to a wire merchandising display or stand, by looping the strap around both the pole and a wire element of the display. The poster display kit, when disassembled into its component parts, may be packed for storage or shipping into the larger of the telescoping pole sections.
