Abstract:
1. A display assembly comprising; (a) an image insert, the image insert being bendable from a planar configuration to a non-planar display configuration, wherein the image insert comprises a plurality of first surfaces for displaying a first image, and a plurality of second surfaces for displaying a second image; and (b) a display frame for supporting the image insert in the non-planar display configuration, wherein the display frame comprises an abutment structure for abutting the plurality of first surfaces and the plurality of second surfaces to secure the plurality of first surfaces at a non-zero angle relative to the plurality of second surfaces and to resist unbending of the image insert, the abutment structure comprises a set of abutments for abutting the plurality of first surfaces and the plurality of second surfaces, wherein each abutment in the set of abutments has a defined spacing and orientation relative to other abutments in the set of rigid abutments, the defined spacing and orientation being selected such that the set of abutments secures the plurality of first surfaces at a non-zero angle relative to the plurality of second surfaces, the image insert comprises a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge, wherein the first edge and the second edge span the plurality of first surfaces and the plurality of second surfaces; the abutment structure comprises a first band for contacting the first edge; the set of abutments comprises a set of notches for receiving the first edge; and, each notch in the set of notches has a notch wall for abutting an associated surface of one of the plurality of first display surfaces and the plurality of second display surfaces.
