ABSTRACT A support assembly for facilitating the hanging or display of a picture, preferably provided in the form of an unassembled kit, includes a plurality of separate relatively rigid elongate channel-like grid members preferably identical in construction and a plurality of attachment members preferably in the form of double-sided, acid free adhesive strips for attaching the grid members to the back of a picture. Each grid member has a plurality of slots defined at uniformly spaced locations therealong for facilitating the breaking off of an end portion thereof to provide the grid member matched in length to a dimension, such as the length or width, of the picture. A plurality of spaced apart rupturable webs are provided which span each slot and integrally interconnect portions of the grid member that define opposite sides of each slot so as to reinforce the grid members at the locations of the slots. Also, each grid member has a plurality of notches defined at spaced locations therealong for facilitating interfitting of the grid members together in a gridwork pattern. The double- sided adhesive strips can be provided separate from the grid members or alternatively preapplied thereto so that they only need to be cut off to the lengths of the grid members and applied to the back of the picture. Resilient clips are provided to hold a sheet of glass on the front of the picture.
