Abstract

A heavy duty display hook which supports point of purchase items or packages is insertable into a rectangular aperture of a panel, such as a cardboard panel provided with a number of spaced apertures for display hooks. The display hook includes a front plate which is substantially vertically disposed in use and which has an upper end and a lower end and an elongated support member which projects forwardly from and extends upwardly in slightly inclined fashion to the front plate. A pair of arms extend rearwardly from the front plate. A slot is disposed between the pair of arms. The arms have a first section which extends through the slot in the panel. A second section of the arms extends upwardly from the first section. The second sections are spaced from and are generally parallel to the front plate. A wing may extend away from each of the second sections.
