A display system for an article, which display system includes an elongate support member with structure for fixedly attaching the elongate support member to a base in a display position. The elongate support member has an entry end which can be directed through an aperture in an article to be displayed so as to allow the article to be displayed to be placed in a display state and slide guidingly lengthwise along the elongate support member. Structure is provided on at least one of the elongate support member and a base on which the elongate support member is fixedly attached in the display position for confining movement of an article to be displayed guidingly along the length of the elongate support member in one direction. A lock member is provided, with there being structure cooperating between the lock member and elongate support member for selectively a) maintaining the lock member in a first locked position wherein the lock member limits movement of an article to be displayed that is in a display state along the elongate support member oppositely to the one direction so that an article to be displayed cannot be separated from the elongate support member by movement in the one direction relative to the elongate support member and b) allowing the lock member to be placed in a second position wherein an article to be displayed can be selectively placed in the display state and separated from the elongate support member.
