Abstract

A multi-purpose reversible target includes a target body having a first side and a second side, a plurality of target areas printed on the first side of the target body, and a plurality of tabs integral with the target body and on the second side of the target body. A stand includes an elongated body having a top end and an opposite bottom end, the bottom end configured for insertion into ground and at least one holder comprising a first loop and a second operatively connected to the first loop to thereby allow for friction fit of an edge of signage between the first loop and the second loop.

Claims

1. A multi-purpose reversible target, comprising:

a target body having a first side and a second side;

a plurality of target areas printed on the first side of the target body;

a plurality of tabs integral with the target body and on the second side of the target body.

2. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 1 wherein the target body and the tabs are formed of cardboard.

3. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 2 wherein the cardboard is corrugated.

4. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 1 wherein the target body has a plurality of targets thereon.

5. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 4 wherein the plurality of targets includes a plurality of bullseye targets.

6. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 4 wherein the plurality of targets includes a plurality of grid targets.

7. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 1 further comprising a first stand and second stand for holding the target body.

8. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 7 wherein each of the first stand and the second stand comprise a first end and an opposite second end and at least one holder positioned between the first end and the opposite second end.

9. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 8 wherein each of the at least holder comprises a first loop and a second loop operatively connected to the first loop to thereby allow for friction fit of an edge of the torqued body between the first loop and the second loop.

10. The multi-purpose reversible target of claim 9 further comprising a base member extending between the first stand and the second stand.

11. A system of support for signage, comprising:

a first stand;

a second stand;

wherein each of the first stand and the second stand comprises (a) an elongated body having a top end and an opposite bottom end, the bottom end configured for insertion into ground (b) at least one holder operatively connected to the elongated body and comprising a first loop and a second loop operatively connected to the first loop to thereby allow for friction fit of an edge of the signage between the first loop and the second loop.

12. The system of claim 11 wherein the bottom end comprises a first prong and a second prong for insertion into ground.

13. The system of claim 11 further comprising a base member extending between the first stand and the second stand.

14. The system of claim 11 wherein each of the first stand and the second stand is formed from a wire rod with each of the at least one holder welded thereto.

15. A store display for displaying targets and stands, the store display comprising:

a support structure for display a plurality of targets and a plurality of stands;

a first target supported on the support structure and comprising (a) a target body having a first side and a second side, (b) a plurality of target areas printed on the first side of the target body, and (c) a plurality of tabs integral with the target body and on the second side of the target body;

a plurality of stands wherein each of the stands comprises (a) an elongated body having a top end and an opposite bottom end, the bottom end configured for insertion into ground (b) at least one holder operatively connected to the elongated body and comprising a first loop and a second loop operatively connected to the first loop to thereby allow for friction fit of an edge of the signage between the first loop and the second loop; and

wherein the first target is mounted on at a top portion of the support structure and within a first and second of the plurality of the stands;

wherein a plurality of additional targets and stands are mounted below the first target.
