Abstract
Abstract An improved package for high density display of articles on display cards is provided by mounting a product on a card so that it is equally visible from both sides of the card and by providing a mounting hole for pegboard mounting and display of the card and article at each end of the card. In order to facilitate display of the card with either end up, the printed information on the face of the card is inverted on one side of the card with reference to that on the other side.
