Abstract

A plastic price channel for attachment along the front edge of a merchandise display shelf to carry labelling pertaining to articles on the shelf has a main body panel and a see-through cover joined to the body panel along its bottom edge so that non-adhesive labels can be fitted between the body panel and the cover. The top edge of the cover can be engaged behind a resilient top lip on the body panel to releasably lock the cover in place and a forwardly extending channel-shaped formation is provided along the top edge of the cover in which the top lip is received. The channel-shaped formation has an upwardly extending outer limb forming a gripping element by which the top edge of the cover can be disengaged from behind the top lip by finger pressure exerted downwardly on the gripping element.
