Abstract

A foldable sheet member including a graphic image and being apt to be arranged in a self-supporting erect position The sheet member comprises front and back sheets (3, 4) superimposed one another and bonded together, said back sheet (4) integrating a flap (8) connected through a folding line (6) allowing said flap (8) to turn. A slit (7) adjoining folding line (6) defines a tongue (9). Front and back sheets (3, 4) are bonded together by means of at least one adhesive dot (11) or a stripe (21) being parallel to folding line (6) at a selected distance therefrom. Said flap (8) can adopt two stable positions; a first stable position in which flap (8) is coplanar with the rest of said back sheet (4) and superimposed on the front sheet (3), and a second stable position in which said flap (8) adopts an inclined position. The folding line (6) is directly opposed to respective edges of flap (8) and front sheet (3) intended to rest on a supporting surface when the foldable sheet member is supported in said erected position by said flap (8) when in said second stable position. Said tongue (9) leaning against the back of front sheet (3) provides an elastic force that opposes the folding of flap (8) to said first stable position.
