Abstract
A pyramidal, truncated container is fashioned from a unitary blank of paperboard. The inner two of four top closure panel each carry a semicircular handle cut from the blank and extend upwardly in surface contact with each other to form a two ply handle. The outer two of four top closure panels carry respective slits which fold over and become aligned and receive the handles. The free edge of the topmost inner top closure panels is provided with two spaced slots each of which receives a respective lower end of the two ply handle. The paperboard material on both sides of each of these slots extends beyond the free end of the bottommost inner top closure panel. The ends of the slits and the ends of the handles resiliently and frictionally engage each other to effect a firm top closure sealing action. The container exhibits special utility as a carry out container for food.
