Abstract

In a data information display device for use with products displayed in a shelf environment. The unit includes a bracket which is designed to mount either adhesively to the front edge of a shelf or by adhesive or other gripping means to a typical ticket rail mounted on the front edge of a shelf. Depending from the bracket is a support member which rotatably carries a data-carrying member having two surfaces, the front surface carrying information for a consumer of the goods and the rear surface carrying information used by store personnel for reorder purposes. The unit normally hangs in a position with the consumer information visible. By simple rotation of the member of the data-carrying member the store reorder information becomes visible and, when utilized, the supporting force is removed and the data-carrying member resumes its normal position.
