ABSTRACT:
A one-piece box blank is cut from a single sheet with creases and score lines dividing the box blank into a receptacle section, a hinge section and a cover section. The cover and receptacle sections both have side and front flaps. The front flaps and hinge section are proportioned such that the receptacle front flap is not totally overlapped by the cover front flap when the box is closed. The depth of the receptacle side flaps adjacent the hinge section is less than the depth of the hinge section. The spaced, scored fold lines separating the side flaps from the cover and the receptacle sections are straight lines, converging from the front flap of the cover to the front flap of the receptacle. If the box is wrapped corner notches are preferably cut in both the one-piece box blank and in a one-piece wrap. The wrap and the blank are combined as they pass through a conventional wrapping machine. When the wrap and box blank are in tray configuration in the wrapping machine, the hinge cuts are incised in either the wrap or in both the wrap and the box blank by added machine components. In the closed box the partially exposed receptacle front flap affords an overlying cover flap edge for opening the box.
