1. A securable article display system comprising:
a base configured to be operatively maintained on a support; an elongate rod having a length and cantilever mounted to the base, the elongate rod having a free end remote from the base and a substantially straight length portion between the base and free end, the straight length portion terminating at a first lengthwise location remote from the base, the elongate rod having a retention portion between the first location and the free end, the elongate rod configured to pass through an enclosed opening on an article so that the article can be suspended for display from the elongate rod and moved along the straight length portion; and a blocking assembly, the blocking assembly having an engaged state and a release state, the blocking assembly defining a receptacle for a part of the elongate rod and configured so that with the blocking assembly in the engaged state: a) the blocking assembly cannot be separated from the elongate rod by movement relative to the elongate rod transversely to the length of the elongate rod; and b) the blocking assembly is movable along the straight length portion of the elongate rod to block an article suspended from the elongate rod from moving from the straight length portion to and past the free end, the elongate rod at and adjacent to the retention portion and blocking assembly configured to interact in a manner whereby the elongate rod binds with the blocking assembly as the blocking assembly moves away from the base towards the free end so as to thereby prevent the blocking assembly from moving past the free end to become separated from the elongate rod. |
