ABSTRACT:
A display container comprising a molded plastic base having spaced elongated oval sides tapering to a open curved front end and a larger curved rear end. A bottom wall extends integrally from the periphery of the sides in a continuous length from a point on the top adjacent the front, around the front end, along the bottom, around the rear end, and on to the top. The opening extends from the front to the rear edge of this wall. The sides have opposed grooves extending adjacent the edges. A plastic flexible cover is slidably mounted in the grooves so that when it is pulled forwardly against the front edge of the wall, the container is closed, and when it is pushed rearwardly, the container is opened. An elongated bar is pivotally mounted adjacent the front end. A support extends from the bar designed to hold an article, such as a travel clock, or a watch, for display. The grooves are curved forwardly and upwardly to direct the rear edge of the cover against the support adjacent the pivot bar when the cover is pushed rearwardly to opne the container. This will tilt the bar and support upwardly to display the contents in a tilted position. When the cover is moved toward closed position the support drops back into the container.
