A transparent display case assembly for displaying planar cards includes a panel that has a plurality of planar cards that are positionable thereon. A plurality of clips is provided and each of the clips is coupled to the panel. Each of the clips is biased to abut the panel to grip a respective one of the planar card. Each of the clips is urgeable away from the panel to facilitate the document to be put into or taken out of the clips. A frame is provided that has a pair of grooves therein for slidably engaging the panel. The frame has a viewing opening and a back wall, and the viewing opening is open into an interior of the frame such that the panel is visible through the viewing opening.

A collectable card mounting device may include a rear wall, a pair of opposed arcuate side walls extending in a forward and outward direction from the rear wall and having a retaining lip for engaging a front surface of the collectable card. The side walls may further include a respective collectable card support member extending from each side wall at an angle. The mounting device may display a collectable on both vertical and horizontal surfaces. The arcuate side walls may define front and rear support ridges that support the device in a portrait orientation at a desirable viewing angle on a horizontal surface. A cover sheet may be dimensioned to extend beyond the width of the rear wall and support the device in a landscape orientation at a desirable viewing angle on a horizontal surface. The mounting device configuration provides an aesthetically desirable display of the collectable with only minimal visibility of the mounting device components and which may include a floating effect on a wall.

A device for securing sheet materials to a surface includes main body having a side wall which connects top and bottom surfaces and a channel which extends along a central portion of the top surface, a member which operatively connects in the channel and moves relative to the channel. The bottom surface flushly engages the surface when the main body is secured thereto, a projection extends from a portion of the side wall outward and at an angle to the side wall, the projection having a free end which is normally disposed at a level which is different from a level of the bottom surface so that when the main body is attached to the surface a gap is defined between the free end and the surface. When the main body is fastened to the surface and the member is moved relative to the channel the side wall is also moved and changes a width of the gap.
