Abstract
A display rack for holding bottles by the neck has stackable units with keyways for holding the bottles. Each unit has a vertically extending central hub with a horizontally extending flange attached thereto. A downwardly extending skirt is attached to the flange. The keyways are formed in the skirt alone or in the flange and skirt. An upper portion of each hub has a smaller dimension than a lower portion of the hub so that one unit may be stacked on top of another unit to accommodate a desired number of bottles.
