Abstract
Abstract A display card including a pair of panels hingedly interconnected at their edges, one of the panels including a relective surface, an indicia secured to the surface of the other panel, the indicia being in a face-to-face relationship with the reflective surface when the panels are in a closed position, and gusset means holding said panels in an angular relationship wherein the virtual image of the indicia will appear in the reflective surface of the one panel.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
106 words
A display card comprising a pair of panels hingedly connected for movement between open and closed positions; each panel has a surface, a reflective metallized sheet laminated to the surface of one of said panels; a reflective indicia secured to the surface of the other of said panels, said indicia being in a face-to-face relationship with said reflective metallized surface when said panels are in the closed position; and gusset means connected to the edges of said panels for limiting the opening of said panels to a predetermined angular relationship wherein said indicia appear as a virtual image in the reflective surface of said one panel.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
106 words
A display card comprising a pair of panels hingedly connected for movement between open and closed positions; each panel has a surface, a reflective metallized sheet laminated to the surface of one of said panels; a reflective indicia secured to the surface of the other of said panels, said indicia being in a face-to-face relationship with said reflective metallized surface when said panels are in the closed position; and gusset means connected to the edges of said panels for limiting the opening of said panels to a predetermined angular relationship wherein said indicia appear as a virtual image in the reflective surface of said one panel.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
35 words
The card according to claim 1 wherein one of said gusset means is provided with a reflective surface on, wherein a virtual image of the pattern appears in the reflective surface of said gusset means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
25 words
The card according to claim 1 wherein said gusset means includes two identical triangular panels which fold inwardly on closing of said pair of panels.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
The card according to claim 1 wherein said gusset means comprises two identical panels which fold outwardly when said pair of panels are closed.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
91 words
A display card comprising a pair of panels hingedly interconnected at their vertical edges, each of said panels including a reflective surface; a first indicia secured to the surface of one of said panels, a second indicia secured to the surface of the other of said panels, and gusset means interconnecting said panels, said gusset means holding said panels in an angular relationship wherein the virtual image of each of said indicia will appear in the other of said mirror-like surfaces to provide a three-dimensional figure in both of said panels.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
91 words
A display card comprising a pair of panels hingedly interconnected at their vertical edges, each of said panels including a reflective surface; a first indicia secured to the surface of one of said panels, a second indicia secured to the surface of the other of said panels, and gusset means interconnecting said panels, said gusset means holding said panels in an angular relationship wherein the virtual image of each of said indicia will appear in the other of said mirror-like surfaces to provide a three-dimensional figure in both of said panels.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
25 words
The card according to claim 5 wherein said gusset means limits the angle between said panels when opened to an angle of 40° or less.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
36 words
The card according to claim 5 wherein said first and second indicia comprise branches of a tree which are offset from each other to form a multiple reflective image of a three-dimensional image of a tree.
