ABSTRACT:
A method of cutting and assembling a carton is provided wherein the top panel of the carton is partially slit along the center line of depth of the top panel. A pair of slits are provided in the top panel lengthwise of the top panel and intersect with the depth slit at the terminal ends of the depth slit. Scoring and tabs are provided inward from the side edges of the top panel by an amount equal to the width of the carton, the scoring extending parallel to the partial center slit. A depthwise blow administered along the partial slit severs the top panel into two portions, which can then be immediately pressed down and in with tabs on the two portions nesting in slots in the back panel at the edges of the back to provide a display opening in the top of the carton. A filler insert is threaded beneath two overhanging ends of the carton and is forced down into the carton to assist in holding the folded down portions of the top into reinforcing relationship with the sides. The resulting carton has no bowing or bulging on the sides of the display area, has a pocket at each end of the depth of the carton in which the ends of articles being displayed can be nested. The carton can be set up ready for use in about one-fourth the time normally taken to set up conventional cartons thereby effecting tremendous savings in labor costs.
