Abstract

A combination of a product and a package and point-of-purchase display unit for the product. The package and display unit includes a border section surrounding a centrally located wall section which serves as a supporting surface for the product. Retainer means which are preferably transparent are connected to the central wall section with legs defined by the retainer means being received in openings defined by the central wall section for securing the retainer means to the central wall section. The retainer means define an overlapping section located between the legs with this overlapping section being spaced from the central wall section. A corner or other part of the product being displayed is received between the surface and the overlapping section for achieving retention of the product on the surface while this part of the product remains visible when the retainer means are transparent.
