ABSTRACT:
The disclosed ballot box and counter display has fixed front, rear, top and side walls; and has a bottom wall hinged to the rear wall, to be opened and closed. The top wall has an inner top wall panel hinged to the upper edge of one side wall and extended to the opposite side wall, and an outer top wall panel hinged along its rear edge to the upper edge of the rear wall panel and adapted to overlie the inner top wall panel. A flap hinged to the upper edge of the other side wall may underlie the inner top wall panel, and a flap hinged to the inner top wall panel may be fitted through slot means in this other side wall flap, for support of the inner top wall panel. A front wall outer panel is hinged at its upper front edge to the lower front edge of the front wall outer panel, and a flap on the lower edge of the outer front wall panel is folded around the lower edge of the front wall and fitted between the adjacent side walls. The top wall is sloped downwardly from the rear wall to the front wall, and a ballot receiving slot is formed in the top wall. A display panel may be supported by the box. A tab on the bottom wall panel at the front edge thereof may cooperate with a shoulder adjacent the lower edge of the front wall to lock the bottom wall in the closed position.
