This old cardboard display was in sad shape. I was tempted to toss it out. But with some new help from a few pieces of wood it has been saved. I am very pleased it turned out.

It would have been a sad waste to toss it. I'm glad you found a working solution.

Good work Tom. Love those vintage displays and you made this one look great. I just wonder how many variations on this display they made. I have got 4 different ones of these and none are the same as yours. I have one with the same head banner issues as yours and now I know what to do to fix it.

You did a very nice job saving the cardboard Tom.

What stories it could tell if it could talk.
