Abstract
Abstract The present invention relates to a display stand of the kind having a vertical post rotatably carried in the center of a supporting means, which preferably is provided with wheels. The stand is further provided with all elements which are easily applied and easily replaced on the post. The object of the invention is to provide such a stand that is stable although its different compartments are differently shaped for exposing different kinds of goods. This has been achieved by providing the wall elements with hooks for engagement with slots in the post and the wall elements are further adapted, when applied on the post, to be retained in a fixed angle position by means of holding means on the lower and/or upper short sides of the wall elements.
