Abstract
A plastic hinged clamshell box receives a stiff paper card within inwardly extending lid detents. The base has a bottom wall with side walls which extend upwardly and terminate at an outwardly extending peripheral lip. A skirt extends downwardly from the peripheral lip and detents extend inwardly from the skirt on multiple sides of the box. The lid has a top wall with downwardly extending side walls, with portions which extend inwardly toward the base skirt forming one or more detents on multiple sides of the lid. The card is of about the dimensions of the lid top wall and is positioned adjacent and beneath the lid top wall within the lid side walls. The stiff card is supported on the lid detents when the lid is disengaged from the base, such that the detents retain the card on the lid. The card is clasped between the base peripheral lip and the lid top wall when the lid is closed upon the base.
