ABSTRACT:
There is provided a cassette support box having four wall panels to enclose a four-sided volume for receiving a tape cassette holder. One end of the box is closed by structure which includes an end panel hinged to a first wall panel, a tuck flap hinged to the end panel and adapted to be tucked inside a second wall panel opposite the first wall panel, the tuck flap and the end panel being joined along a hinge line which contains a slot, the second wall panel having a linking tab hinged thereto, and an entry tab hinged to the linking tab. The entry tab has a general width less than the length of the slot, but including a lateral protrusion which increases the width to greater than the length of the slot, thereby requiring a distorting force in order to insert the entry tab into the slot. In this manner, removal of the entry tab from the slot is discouraged. This design is intended to reduce theft.
