First Claim
1. A bulletin board upon which objects are to be secured for display, comprising:
- a support backing; and
a tablet mounted upon said support backing and comprising a plurality of sheets disposed within a stacked array, each one of said plurality of sheets having adhesive material coated upon a first side thereof wherein said adhesive material is characterized by means of a predetermined tack level which is sufficiently strong such that objects can be adhered thereto so as to be displayed upon said bulletin board when the adhesive-coated side of an outermost one of said plurality of sheets is exposed, and yet said plurality of sheets can be individually separated from each other when a new sheet of said plurality of sheets is to be exposed so as to serve as a fresh outermost one of said plurality sheets upon which objects are to be adhered for display upon said bulletin board.

Abstract
A new and improved bulletin board comprises a rigid support or backing member, and a tablet comprising a stacked array of adhesive-coated sheets, mounted upon the rigid support or backing member, wherein each one of the adhesive-coated sheets is adapted to have various different objects, such as, for example, notices, memos, notes, bills, pens, pencils, coupons, or the like, adhered thereon. By forming the bulletin board so as to comprise the plurality of adhesive-coated sheets, an exposed adhesive-coated sheet, whose tack level has degraded with time, may simply be removed from the tablet or stacked array of adhesive-coated sheets so as to expose a new or fresh adhesive-coated sheet which can now be used to again securely adhere objects upon the bulletin board. The degree of adherence or tackiness level of the adhesive-coated surface of each film sheet may be variably adjusted as a result of different treatment levels by means of which the adhesive coating material is secured upon the film surface, as well as the particular chemical composition of the adhesive material per se, the chemical composition of the cross-linking constituents incorporated within the adhesive material, and the particular percentages by weight of the adhesive and cross-linking materials comprising the adhesive material composition.
