Abstract
The disclosed package consists of a base having sidewalls defining a top opening providing access to the interior of the package and a flat flexible cover substantially complementary to the opening. The sidewalls have top edges, with the top edge of one wall located below the top edges of the other sidewalls. The base includes shoulders for supporting the cover below the top edge of the shorter of the sidewalls; and flanges or extensions project from the top edges of the other three walls to resist upward movement of the cover relative to the base while permitting the cover to be placed on the base by a sliding movement.
