display booth and office work station are designed to be placed on
the floor or ground and used to display and hold articles. The
dimensions are approximately 5 inches W x 6 feet D x 8 to 10 feet

The applicable subheading for the inflatable trade show
display booth will be 9403.70.8030, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
