ABSTRACT:
A carton for glassware or like articles includes a conventional sleeve with a top, a bottom, sidewalls and a central dividing panel. Locking mechanisms are located on each end of the sidewalls. Each locking mechanism includes a connected series of panels hinged to a sidewall of the carton at two places. The locking panels have an initial position in which they are flat and out of the way to permit articles to be placed in the carton. To hold the articles inside the carton, the locking panels are shifted to form a wedge shape which partially blocks the open ends of the sleeve. A locking tab is folded into the interior of the wedge to hold it in place. Preferably the locking panels are three in number and extend from an edge of a sidewall of the carton.
