Summary:A mounting member for removably securing conventional items, such as flip up and down glasses, compasses, pedometers, pouches, purses, cases, clips, holding members, flashlights or pen lights, and watches to support articles, such as baseball caps, head sweat bands, clothing, footwear, parts of a person's body, posts, steps, and moldings where the support articles have convex, concave or stepped surfaces, the mounting member being provided with transverse hinges between sections thereof to permit the sections to pivot both upwardly and downwardly relative to each other so that the mounting member can be positioned on a curved article, where the hinges can have flexible accordian-like portions to permit the sections to pivot or swing transversely from side to side relative to each other to provide a curved arrangement. One of the sections can include an adjustment member to position the flip up and down glasses relative to a wearer's eyes. The item can be formed integrally on one section or can be removably secured thereto by Velcro fasteners, snap fasteners, suction members or a double sided adhesive tape. The mounting member can be removably secured to the support article by any one of the above mentioned fasteners. In one embodiment, a fastener on an upper surface of one end section is secured to a fastener on a lower surface of an opposite end section so that the mounting member is disposed around the support article. The mounting member can be provided with numerous sections integrally connected together by the hinges.
