Claim:
A device for displaying an article on a peg-board having a plurality of spaced support holes extending through from the peg-board front face to the peg-board back, comprising: a base housing having first and second portions securable to the front age of the peg-board, said first portion having at least one L-shaped prong at its top with a distal end extending upwardly adjacent said peg-board back when mounted to said peg-board, said second portion having at least one L-shaped prong at its bottom with a distal end extending downwardly adjacent said peg-board back when mounted to said peg-board, said first and second portions each having opposing side walls extending substantially perpendicular from the peg-board with said side walls of said first portion overlapping said side walls of said second portion when mounted on the peg-board, said overlapping side walls including interfering portions blocking relative movement perpendicular to said peg-board front face when mounted to said peg-board, said interfering portions having an opening in one of said overlapping side walls; and a projection from the other of said overlapping side walls, said projection extending into said one side wall opening when overlapping; whereby one of said one side wall and said projection is elastically flexible whereby said projection may be selectively removed from said one side wall opening; whereby said first and second portions define a substantially enclosed space adjacent said peg-board front face, and said first portion defines a housing front face with an opening through said housing front face to said enclosed space; a recoil mechanism having a cable with a distal end, said recoil mechanism biased toward retracting said cable into said recoil mechanism, and disposed in said base housing enclosed space with said cable extending through said housing front face opening with said cable distal end outside said housing enclosed space; and an adapter plate secured to said cable distal end and securable to an article to be displayed.
