Abstract
A sleeve style closed end carton for a can matrix where the cans preferably are the type having necked in head and heel rims. The carton includes corner flaps that are wrapped around the corner cans of the matrix, the corner flaps, along with the top and bottom side wall corners, preferably being structured to make the tapered portion of each corner can's head and heel partially visible when the carton is viewed in top and bottom views, as well as side elevation view, thereby in effect eliminating the carton's corners.
