ABSTRACT:
An easy-open wall for a container and associated tab is provided and comprises an approximately U-shaped score line in the wall with the score line having a bight and a pair of extensions extending from the bight and having arcuate end lengths terminating in spaced ends. The spaced ends have a portion of the wall therebetween and the score line defines a panel which is completely severable from the wall while remaining attached at the wall portion to define an opening in the wall. The tab is attached substantially flatly against the wall and has a forward portion which overlies the panel adjacent the arcuate end lengths and has a rear portion with the rear portion being easily grasped and lifted to urge the forward portion against the panel to thereby sever the panel first along the arcuate end lengths and then progressively along the extensions and bight to move the panel within the container with the wall portion holding the panel securely to the wall.
