ABSTRACT:
The disadvantages of the prior art are overcome by the present invention which in one aspect is an apparatus for packaging a compact disc, comprising a paperboard shell and holding member. The paperboard shell includes a top panel that defines a circular opening passing therethrough having a diameter at least equal to the diameter of a compact disc. The paperboard shell also includes a first side panel, a bottom panel that is disposed opposite the top panel, and a second side panel that is disposed opposite the second side panel. A glue tab extends from the first top panel and is affixed to the second side panel. The top panel, the first side panel, the bottom panel, and the second side panel with the glue tab affixed thereto define a cavity therein. The holding member is disposed within the cavity of the paperboard shell and has a top surface defining a circular recess. The circular recess has a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of a compact disc and is in alignment with the circular opening so as to be able to receive a compact disc therein. The holding member is made from a resilient material that allows insertion and removal of a compact disc to and from the recess and that also provides holding support for a compact disc when placed within the recess.
