Display rack for two-piece billiard cues

摘要

An improved display rack is disclosed for storing two-piece billiard cues in their separable upper shaft and lower butt sections. The display rack comprises a support frame assembly substantially rectangular in its assembled form and attached to the front side of a back panel that is intended to be vertically disposed and adapted for mounting on a wall surface. The support frame assembly includes a base ledge member for supporting the butt section of each cue in a standing position and an upper ledge member formed with slotted openings over the base ledge member to engage the collar end of each standing butt section, holding each butt section in substantially vertical position upon the base ledge member. A series of clip fasteners each adapted to releasably engage the collar end of the shaft section opposite to the cue tip are mounted along the back panel and beneath the upper ledge member to hold the shaft section of each cue in a substantially vertical and inverted attitude with the cue tip downward and suspended above the base ledge member. Alternate fasteners employed in the present display rack are further disclosed for holding the shaft section of the cues in this suspended attitude that maintains the straightness of the shaft section and prevents warping of the cue when not in use.
