Abstract
A package for the storage and display of products such as video game cartridges and compact disks. The package consists of an elongated strip of transparent flexible plastic or similar material having a series of pockets or pouches attached to the the strip. The package may be hung from a hole at one end of the strip to display the contents of each of the pockets, the pockets all opening upwards towards the end of the strip from which the package is hung. The strip includes hinging portions between the pockets so that the cartridges or disks in the pockets can be folded together, in a zig-zag or accordion fashion to form a compact stack. When folded into a stack, a flap at one end of the strip may be folded over one side of the stack and fastened to the other end of the strip so as to hold the cartridges or disks in place in the stack, but at the same time allowing the side of the stack opposite to the flap to be opened so that the cartridges or disks can be examined one at a time, in a manner similar to opening a book, one page at a time.
