Abstract
A display rack for displaying displayed items can be an opaque cabinet with a light source located in the opaque cabinet. The cabinet has a transparent light pipe having a light accepting end and a light emitting end, connected by a light conducting body having an index of refraction that transmits light from the light accepting end to the light emitting end. The cabinet has at least a first tray having an item display portion for holding the displayed item and a second tray having an opaque bottom wall and an opaque front portion configured to operably connect the light accepting end of the transparent light pipe to the light source and maintains the light emitting end of the light pipe in a position where the light emitted by the light emitting end illuminates the card holding portion of the first tray.
