ABSTRACT:
A container assembly for storage and display of articles formed of a plurality of parts that can be stored and shipped in substantially flat form and that can be assembled to a three-dimensional form thereby both storing the articles that are for sale and representing a display of one of the articles. A cylindrical body comprises two or more body panels preferably of resilient plastic biasing the panels toward a normally flat condition. Cooperative elongated interlocking channel members for locking the body panels together at adjacent side edges to form the cylinder. The channels are formed to interfit readily when the body panel margins adjacent the edges are substantially coplanar. The pressure biasing the body panels toward a flat position locks the interlocking channels together when the panels are curved to form a cylinder. Flanges on the channel members bear against the body panel margins adjacent the edges to stiffen those panel margins to maintain a smooth continuation of the cylindrical shape at and through the lines of interlock. Partition panels and a floor assembly are positioned within the cylindrical body. A sheet is held by interlockable channel members in a cylindrical form and has a flat lid snapped onto it to form a replica of a bottle cap. The cap replica fits on top of neck portions of the partition panels.
