Went to purchase some plaster or cement fasteners, but I'm sure this can't be right, no? How can the hanger part be on the same side as the fastener?

"Rocky Mountain Goods Picture Hangers for Brick, Concrete and Cinder Block is the best solution for hanging pictures on hard walls. The stainless steel pins are gently tapped into the hard wall and create a secure hooks for pictures or other items. The extra strength design can hold heavy pictures and comes with a lifetime warranty. When no longer needed only minimal pin hole marks are left that can be easily filled in."

Sure it can, but you didn't bother to watch the video on Amazon...

But Harry, once you tap the pins into the wall, the hook is facing the wall! How can that be right? Or...? what am I missing?

OH! I finally get it. You tap on the pins - geez! I had to figure it out from looking at about 15 million pictures of these things.

At first I thought that they were M.C. Escher hooks.

Don't feel bad. This design isn't very common.
