Abstract
A system for attaching a sign to a chain link fence of the type having post-supported interwoven wires producing a matrix of wire lengths extending between wire cross-over centers. The system comprises a sign, to the rear surface of which one or more attachment devices are secured. The attachment devices each comprise a pair of sections each having a face with circumscribing sides and interlocking means to secure the sections together along edges of their sides. The sections, when secured together over a cross-over center produce a hollow device having opposed faces and sides extending therebetween. The sides of the device have slots, when the device is so seated, located as to be seated over corresponding portions of the wire lengths extending outwardly from that center. A plurality of such devices supporting a sign, when secured to a chain link fence at predetermined locations, provide a simple and secure means for securing a sign to a chain link fence.
