Abstract

A merchandise display hook assembly provides high density display of carded merchandise and the like on apertured panelboard display structures. The device includes a base member engageable with and supported by the apertured panel, and an adapter member which is slidably mounted on the base member for limited lateral sliding movement over a distance approximating a substantial portion of the center-to-center distance between apertures in the panelboard. A merchandise display hook element is removably seated on the adapter member to carry the merchandise. The laterally adjustable adapter member enables the hook to be adjusted laterally within the mounting area for the assembly as necessary to achieve high density utilization of the display area and without interference between adjacent displayed merchandise to avoid unnecessarily wide spacing between adjacent articles.
