Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9956845A1] A storage and/or display system for an object or objects such as a picture or poster or the pieces of a partly- or fully-completed jigsaw, which system comprises the combination of: a flexible transparent sheet, on which the one or more object to be stored and/or displayed may be laid, which transparent sheet is of a size at least twice that of all the objects to be displayed; and two sheets of a material that is uni-directionally flexible, these two sheets being disposable one over the other either so that their directions of flexibility are the same, and they can be rolled up together, or so that their directions of flexibility are orthogonal, and each prevents the other being rolled up; such that in use the or each object is positioned on the transparent sheet, and then, if the two uni-directionally flexible sheets are orientated with their flexibility direction the same, and rolled up into a tubular former, the combination of the former and the transparent sheet bearing the object(s) can be rolled up around them for storage purposes, whereas if the two uni-directionally-flexible sheets are placed underneath with their flexibility directions orthogonal, then the combination is stiff, flat and supportive for display purposes.
