Abstract
A storage case for a magnetic-tape cassette with a front opening which is covered at the front by a cover pivotally connected to the cassette housing. The case includes at least one positioning element which extends into the front opening of the cassette and is arranged on a bottom surface of a base section near the case rear wall, for positioning the cassette. The distance at the case base between the front side of the positioning element, remote from the rear wall, to the inner side of the rear wall is greater than the distance from the wall portion of the cassette housing adjoining the positioning element to the front side of the cassette front cover. Movement of the cassette inside the case towards the rear wall is thus limited by abutment of the cassette wall portion with the positioning element, so that the front cover remains clear of the case rear wall.
