Title: Merchandising display

Abstract: A merchandising display comprising a vertical post and at least two vertically spaced apart support members rotatably mounted by bearings on the post. A plurality of tongues project horizontally in different directions from each support member. A plurality of merchandise--holding cases are carried by the support members, each case having two pockets for accommodating one tongue of each support member. The tongues and pockets are formed with cooperable locking means to secure the cases to the support members. The post has an angle-shaped cross-section, and each bearing has a portion non-rotatably accommodating the post. Each case has a removable merchandise-holding front panel, which is preferably translucent, and the back of each case is open to transmit light to the panel from a light source mounted on the post. Each front panel may have a plurality of pairs of horizontally-aligned holes for accommodating the temples of a pair of sunglasses being displayed, fixed canopies projecting rearwardly from the panel over each hole serving to prevent downward rotation of the sunglasses portion exposed on the exterior of the panel. Two pairs of support members may be provided for supporting two tiers of cases. Adjacent support members of the two tiers are non-rotatably joined to each other with a single bearing between them.
