Abstract
An article for determining the adequacy of space for a television set comprises a foldable generally rigid body, such as cardboard, having dimensions approximately equal to those of the television set. The article includes indicia indicating the diagonal screen size or other dimensions of the television set and/or identifying television model(s) having the represented dimensions. The article can be dispensed to individuals who wish to make determinations of the availability or suitability of space in a particular location prior to taking possession of the television set. Several articles of different dimensions can be provided, e.g., in a retail electronics store, wherein the dimensions of the several articles correspond to the dimensions of several television models that are available.
