Abstract
A shipping and display case or carton which is suitable for shipping and displaying consumer and other goods which are packaged in high unit volume. The display case enjoys excellent compressive strength so that the cases may be stacked one upon the other notwithstanding the substantial weight of the high unit volume consumer products, e.g. 300 fluid oz. heavy duty liquid detergent container. The display panel of the display case includes a bottom zone and lines of weakness on either side thereof. The bottom zone may be pulled downwardly to sever the lines of weakness and make it easier to slide the containers out of the display case. Moreover, the display panel also includes side zones which may be severed from the bottom closure of the display case and swung into positions in which they do not obstruct the egress of products from the display case.
