A display device system preferably made of flexible material for the removable, changeable displaying of bumper stickers and related indicia on vehicles and the like. The improved system includes a rectangular display sleeve having a transparent outer wall with a like configured, rectangular base member joined to the sleeve member by a heat seal at their side edges. The base member on its rear face includes an adhesive surface for adhering the display device to the vehicle. The sleeve member utilizes a flexible, zippered sleeve or envelope with a transparent front, with the display indicia item being inserted into the sleeve through the zippered edge, which is thereafter zippered closed. The base and sleeve members form an accordion-type fold, in which the fold faces are adhered together during use using an adhesive with lesser holding strength than that used to adhere the base member to the vehicle. To remove the display device from the vehicle, the forward fold member carrying the sleeve structure is initially pulled away from the rear fold in a first direction toward the joined edge of the fold, overcoming the lesser strength adhesive, with the then pulled-away, forward fold being effectively used as a gripping handle and pulled back in the opposite direction to reliably remove the base member from the vehicle surface. In an alternative embodiment (FIG. 4) suction cups on tabs are provided to affix the display device to, for example, the rear window of the vehicle using the suction cups.
