ABSTRACT:
An article carrier for use as a wrap-around type carrier is adapted for conversion to a basket style carrier and is formed from a generally rectangular blank having top, bottom and side walls which are interconnected to form a tubular structure when wrapped about a group of articles with ends of the blank secured together, a pair of spaced apart generally parallel transverse frangible means formed in the top and side walls to define transverse end panels at each end of the tubular structure and to define a carrying handle therebetween, a web panel foldably joined to each end edge of each of said end panels along a fold line which is normal to the associated end panel and which is foldably joined to the associated side wall along a diagonal fold line so that each web panel is foldable inwardly into contacting relation with the inner surface of the associated side wall following rupture of the frangible means and is foldable simultaneously with swinging movement of the end wall panels into positions astride the ends of the tubular structure to convert the carrier into a basket style carrier.
