Abstract

An article support device (10) includes a support body (14) having an article support section (12) and a cover member (16) movably coupled to the support body (14). When the device is used, the support body (14) is fixedly adhered with a stretch-releasable adhesive tape member (18) and is attached to a surface (36) by the adhesive tape member (18) with a non adhesive pull tab portion (18a) of the adhesive tape member (18) projecting outwardly from one longitudinal end of the support body (14). In this condition, a portion of the cover member (16) is capable of moving between a first position for hiding the pull tab portion (18a) projecting outwardly from behind the support body (14) and a second position for exposing the pull tab portion (18a) of the adhesive tape member (18).
