ABSTRACT:
A container for thin, flat articles has a box-like housing with an opening through which each article can be inserted into the housing and removed therefrom in a direction lying in the plane of the article, and a series of article support members within the housing in side-by-side parallel relationship to enable each article to be received between a respective adjacent pair of support members. One of the support members is a primary support member having a handle to enable the primary support member to be at least partially pulled out of the container through the opening, and the other support members are secondary support members. Each adjacent pair of support members are interconnected to cause manual pulling of the primary support member at least partially out of the container through the opening to successively pull the secondary support members at least partially out of the container through the opening in a telescopic manner by successive operation of the interconnections after each successive support member has been pulled a predetermined distance. Each support member supports an article so that each article is at least partially pulled out of the container through the opening with its associated support member, thereby displaying the articles in staggered relationship.
