A display device for spreading a turkey's tail feathers in a fan-like display is provided. The device consists of a U-shape with 3 rubber quill clips, 1 located at the top, 1 located on one end of the device and 1 located on remaining end of the device. The rubber clips allow the quills in the middle of the fan as well as the quills near the base on opposite sides to be used to hold the turkey fan in a set position. When installed the device is invisible to view. This device is a multipurpose toot and can be used for taxidermy use in preserving the turkey fan. This device may be used as a mounting mechanism for wall display. A mounting mechanism may further be provided for the mounting of an object to the turkey fan such as the beard, or a pole for the use of the fan as a decoy in the field or a mount on the wall or shelf.

A wall mounting apparatus including a first prism and a second prism. The first prism includes a first surface and a second surface, the first surface being parallel to the second surface. The first surface further includes a first aperture extending through the first surface and the second surface. The shape of the first aperture can include a semicircular arch. The second prism comprising a third surface and a fourth surface, the third surface being parallel the fourth surface. The fourth surface of the second prism may mount to the first surface of the first prism. The second prism may include a second aperture extending through the third surface and the fourth surface. The second aperture may include an elongated shape configured to form a locking interface.

Shed antlers are attached for display to a mount comprising an elongate bar that may be mounted to a wall. The bar includes plural attachment nodes and flexible tethers are connected to the attachment nodes. In a preferred embodiment the attachment nodes are defined by a sinusoidal rod that is attached to the elongate bar to define adjacent openings to which the tethers are connected. Shed antlers are attached to the tethers for display.

An image display comprising a substantially rigid support structure including a rectangular central sheet, four side strips and four back strips can be provided. An image can be provided on at least the front of the central sheet. The side strips can extend alongside respective edges of the central sheet and be adjoined to form four corners. The back strips can extend along respective side strips and be adjoined at respective corners for forming the assembled support structure. A mechanical securement device can be connected to adjoined back strips at each corner for rigidly securing the adjoined back strips together and for retaining the side and back strips in an assembled position.

An article for hanging on a support surface includes a substrate having a first end and a second end. The article includes a pair of rails with each rail including a recessed channel that extends in a longitudinal direction. A pair of splines is provided with each spline including a raised ridge that extends in a longitudinal direction. The raised ridge is configured for insertion into the recessed channel. The article also includes a first pair of end caps. Each end cap of the first pair of end caps having an end walls and side walls that define a hollow interior, wherein each end cap of the first pair of end caps further includes slots that are formed in two of the side walls that are opposite one another. The article includes an elongated hanging element that has enlarged portions at two opposite ends thereof. The elongated hanging element passes through the slots of the first pair of end caps with the enlarged portions being located external to the first pair of end caps. Wherein in an assembled state, one rail and one spline are disposed adjacent one another such that the raised ridge is at least partially inserted into the recessed channel and the substrate is captured within the recessed channel and the first pair of end caps are disposed over opposite ends of the one rail and one spline to join and hold the one rail and one spline against one another with the substrate captured therebetween.

A mounting apparatus for variably displaying an item includes a clamping device including a first jaw, and a cradle, the clamping device configured to adjustably decrease a distance between the first jaw and the cradle to apply a clamping force therebetween upon an item to be displayed. A swiveling device coupled to the clamping device is configured to selectively permit and prevent swiveling adjustment of a position of the clamping device independently of the distance between the first jaw and the cradle. The swiveling device, when loosened, permits three dimensional rotation adjustments of the clamping device. A three-member cradle has a second jaw opposite the first jaw, and a pair of laterally and diagonally extending shoulders.
