The subject matter of the current invention is directed to a front-loading display system adapted for safe, frequent, and rapid change of displayed objects. The display system includes a base and an object-holding assembly. The object-holding assembly can be releasably attached to the base through the use of a fastener, which allows the base to remain mounted to a mounting surface when changing display objects. In a preferred embodiment, the fastener employs magnetic force to connect the base and the object-holding assembly. The display object is retained between a resting plate and a cover plate, the two plates being releasably attached to each other by the use of at least one holding device, which may be selected from clips, clasps, hinges and elastic bands.

1. A display system comprising: (a) a base having a rear surface and an opposing support surface and at least one side panel protruding in an angle from said support surface;(b) an object-holding assembly including: (i) a cover plate;(ii) a resting plate having a support surface and an opposing rear surface; and(iii) at least one holding device for releasably attaching said cover plate to said resting plate; and(c) a fastener for releasably attaching said object-holding assembly to said base, said fastener comprising at least two magnetic fasteners substantially spaced from each other, each of said magnetic fasteners including an attachment piece attached to said base and a counter-attachment piece attached to said object-holding assembly, wherein each attachment piece and each counter-attachment piece comprises a member independently selected from magnets and ferromagnetic materials, wherein said attachment pieces and said counter-attachment pieces releasably engage through magnetic force when said object-holding assembly is attached to said base,wherein the display system comprises at least one gap between said object-holding assembly and said at least one side panel, said gap sufficient for a user to insert one or more finger between said resting plate and said support surface of said base in order to pull said object-holding assembly away from said base thereby disengaging said attachment pieces and said counter-attachment pieces. 2. The display system of claim 1, further comprising a display object positioned between said resting plate and said cover plate. 3. The display system of claim 1, wherein at least one of said attachment pieces is attached to said support surface of said base. 4. The display system of claim 1, wherein said at least one holding device of said object-holding assembly comprises at least one of said counter-attachment pieces. 5. The display system of claim 1, wherein said resting plate of said object-holding assembly further comprises at least one of said counter-attachment pieces. 6. The display system of claim 5, wherein at least one of said counter-attachment pieces is attached to said rear surface of said resting plate. 7. The display system of claim 1, further comprising a mounting device for mounting said base to a vertical or horizontal mounting surface. 8. The display system of claim 1, wherein said object-holding assembly further comprises a spacer between said cover plate and said resting plate. 9. The display system of claim 1, wherein said cover plate is essentially transparent. 10. The display system of claim 1, wherein said cover plate comprises a transparent portion. 11. The display system of claim 1, wherein said cover plate comprises a material selected from the group consisting of metal, wood, glass, Plexiglas, plastics, vinyl, acrylics, polystyrene, polycarbonate, safety glass, woven materials, cardboard, multi-layered paper, plastic foil and combinations thereof. 12. The display system of claim 1, wherein said resting plate comprises a material selected from the group consisting of wood, metal, glass, Plexiglas, plastics, vinyl, acrylics, polystyrene, polycarbonate, safety glass, cardboard and combinations thereof. 13. The display system of claim 1, wherein at least one member selected from said resting plate and said cover plate further comprises one or more attachment aid to facilitate attachment of said holding device. 14. The display system of claim 13, wherein each of said attachment aid is a member independently selected from grooves, slits, holes and protrusions. 15. The display system of claim 1, wherein each of said holding device is a member independently selected from the group consisting of clips, clamps, pegs, clasps, elastic bands, strings, straps, rivet fasteners, pin fasteners, screws, latches, braces, hook and loop fasteners, elastic fasteners, hinges, corner casts, nuts and bolts, magnets and ferromagnetic material. 16. The display system of claim 15, wherein said clips are members independently selected from the group consisting of binder clips and spring clips. 17. The display system of claim 1, wherein said base comprises a rigid material selected from the group consisting of wood, corrosion-resistant metal, coated metal, plastics, Plexiglas, composites, vinyl, acrylics, polystyrene, polycarbonate, and combinations thereof. 18. The display system of claim 1, wherein said base comprises four side panels forming a box-shaped frame. 19. The display system of claim 18, wherein said object-holding assembly rests on a side panel when said display system is in an upright position. 20. The display system of claim 1, wherein said base further comprises one or more supporting device for supporting weight of said object-holding assembly when said display system is in an upright position. 21. The display system of claim 1, wherein each of said magnetic fasteners comprises an attachment piece attached to said support surface of said base and a counter-attachment piece attached to said rear surface of said resting plate. 22. The display system of claim 1, wherein each of said magnetic fasteners comprises a magnetic snap fastener.
