Abstract
A collapsible compact disc holder comprises a housing with a lower wall, an upper wall, a pair of opposing side walls, and a pair of opposing open ends. Each of the upper and lower walls has a pair of opposing side edges. Each of the side edges of the upper wall is hingedly connected to a different one of the side walls and each of the side edges of the lower wall is hingedly connected to a different one of the side walls. The housing is adapted to be moved between an upright rectangular configuration, wherein each of the side walls of the housing extends perpendicularly from corresponding side edges of the upper and lower walls, to a collapsed configuration, wherein the upper wall extends from one of the side walls along the same plane and the lower wall extends from the other of the side walls along the same plane. First and second curved support members are provided. Each of the curved support members is insertable into one of the ends of the housing when the same is in the upright configuration. Each curved support member includes a column of vertically spaced apart slots for partially receiving a plurality of compact discs therein.
