Gibson Holders 1A 2-Wire Display Stand, Black, 12-Pack

These easels are so easy to use for pictures, artwork or special plates. They are very sturdy and they are barely visible and do not take away from what you are displaying.

I love these little easels. They are very versatile and sturdy. Plus, the wire does not come up to high as to get in the way of the artwork. As you can see in the picture, the wire of the easel is barely visible at the bottom of the picture tile It is holding up. These work really well. They are a little stiff when you take them out of the box. But they stay in place really well, and what you display on them stays secure.

These were perfect for displaying new additions or themed displays in my classroom library. They are easy to shape, but hold the weight of larger texts.

I did use this for plates. Four 6 1/2" and an 8 1/2" and had no problem at all. I have plenty left over and will likely use them for other things since I have so many left over. I really recommend following the instructions on how to expand them once you get them out. I was very hasty as always, and almost broke one but saw the directions facing me on the box as I was struggling. I was about to purchase a different size of these for the plate but I saw the company had posted some time ago that these would work so I got them. Actually, if I hadn't seen their response to the questions area, I would have moved on to the 6A package. The hinges are nice and tight and I won't have to worry about them slipping anywhere. However, my plates are up high and untouchable above my kitchen cabinets, so they will not go anywhere. I would not recommend using them for plates that would be at a handling level because accidents do happen. I also want to mention the angle of the plates because that was also a concern of mine. The angle is actually ok for my purpose. In fact, I kept them just a tad more angled because that's the Cali life, shake, shake, just in case. These are rubberized which is fantastic! Makes them even more study as well as keeping my item scratch free.

Items work well for my classroom, but they could be a little taller.

These are very handy display stands for smaller objects. I wanted to display a mix of books and photos. It's great for small framed photos and smaller books. I would need to buy larger sized ones for bigger books. The stand doesn't have a high back and the bottom of the stand where the book rests is shallow and the forward edge isn't flat it curls up a bit at the tips and so with thicker books it pushes into the pages rather than letting the books sit evenly. I may see if I can bend them slightly but I'm probably better served with a larger device. The stands are otherwise fine and the quality is pretty good. I would have no problem ordering these again for the right sized items.

I've used just about ever book/professional and manufactured holder there is. I'm an author and have done a lot of events and conventions.I LOVE these. They aren't just great for books--which they are amazing for--but my two sons, who are hard on everything, use them for their phones and tablets, too, when they are watching something and don't want to hold it. My books are huge and heavy. I have one that's over over 600 pages, 6 x 9, and it holds it like a champ. And it's movable so you can hold it upright or unfold it to hold it kind of like a plate holder if you'd rather it or need that size instead. I LOVE this. I've never going back to another kind or brand. For the price, size, quality, and amount you get? You can't beat it with a stank of books.

Just too small to hold much weight, though whatever you’re displaying may be within certain dimensions if it weighs too much it’ll tip. I’m talking like display boards that don’t even weigh that much either. Don’t really recommend.
