A display apparatus is removably attachable to the filler gun of a fuel pump, where the filler gun includes in series connection, a gun nozzle having a forward discharge end, and a rear end, a gun head having both a forward end portion which connects with the rear end of the gun nozzle; and a rearward handle portion whose forward end connects to the rear of the gun nozzle and a rearward handle portion whose forward end connects to the rear end of the gun head. The display apparatus includes a carrying body adapted to fit onto the filler gun and to extend from approximately a first junction between the rear end of the gun nozzle and the forward end of the gun head to approximately a second junction between the rear end of the gun head and the forward end of the handle. The carrying body has an upper surface defining an elongate display surface for messages, and includes a first member and a second member where there are various techniques for releasably interconnecting the first and second members. The first and second members are shaped to generally conform, when interconnected, to enclose the sides, bottom, and upper portions of the gun head, and through various techniques pivotally connect to the upper surface of the carrying body for supporting a replaceable message card placed on the display surface.
