ABSTRACT:
The top wall of an article carrier is provided with at least one hand gripping aperture and a number of score lines are arranged to extend from an end of the hand gripping aperture outwardly in a converging path toward corners of the top wall. Diverging cut lines are formed at the outer end of the score lines and diverge from each other as cut lines one of which extends across the top wall and into the adjacent end wall and the other of which extends in the top wall and into the adjacent side wall. The arrangement of diverging score lines in association with converging cut lines constitutes an effective means of distributing the carrier load. By this means the caliber of board used in the formation of the carrier may be substantially reduced and economies thereby effected.
