Abstract

A shelf bracket for removably attaching shelves to a display panel. The bracket is of unitary construction and particularly adaptable to be formed by extrusion of aluminum, or the like. The bracket comprises a back portion adapted to grip the panel and having two parallel portions extending horizontally therefrom. The parallel portions are spaced apart the thickness of the shelf. The lower parallel portion has a front edge with a high coefficient of friction and extends outward from the back portion a distance sufficient that the weight of the shelf extending therebeyond causes a rotational force against the gripping front edge sufficient to prevent the shelf from pulling out from between the two parallel portions in normal use.
