A peg and universal pegboard for mounting a display having a detent-secured bayonet mount comprising: a. equally spaced rows and columns of a multiplicity of noncircular apertures in said pegboard having mutually identical principal planes of symmetry in orthogonal directions, b. an elongate base block having a shank extending from its back face adjacent one end thereof, c. a lock block mounted on the end of the shank spaced from the back face of the base block by a distance slightly greater than the thickness of the pegboard and having a shape geometrically similar to but slightly smaller than that of the apertures, and d. a detent means comprising a stud extending from the back face of the base block and having a rounded end of a diameter larger than the smallest dimension across an aperture in the plane thereof, said stud being spaced from the shank along the length of the base block by a distance equal to the distance between the rows and columns of said apertures.
