Apparatus for transporting and displaying goods has a frame having a base, a pair of opposed side frames, a shelf support post in each frame, and a vertical row of keyholes in each post for pivotal support of a plurality of shelves; the shelf for the apparatus has a center section for supporting a tray, a front barrier for retaining a tray on the shelf, a pair of opposed transverse arms and a key on an outer end of each arm, and a rotator lever on a back of the shelf; a tilt column is connectible to the shelf levers and as the tilt column goes up and down, the shelves pivot from a horizontal transport position to a tilted or inclined display position and back to the horizontal position. A tilt mechanism is articulately connected in between the frame and the column by a hinge on the frame and a hinge on the column, the tilt mechanism has an adjustable stop and a multi-position lock that enables positive positioning of the shelves at several angles, for example, 0, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 degrees of tilt, as the shelves pivot, the shelf levers and the column travel through an arcuate path and the column is guided through the arcuate path by upper and lower radius arms which pivot from the side frame posts, the shelves are removable and replaceable from the apparatus when the column is at its maximum height, when the column is below its maximum height the shelf keys restrainingly engage the side frame posts and provide lateral support from the side frames, the shelves may be placed in many positions and various combinations of quantities and spacings of shelves may be utilized.
