ABSTRACT:
A protective container for font disc segments. The container includes a housing portion for supporting the segment and a cap portion for closing the housing portion and, at the same time, for locking the segment against movement within the housing portion. More particularly, the housing portion includes an inner casing supported within an outer casing with the inner casing being of relatively flexible material and having side wall portions extending beyond the top opening in said outer casing. After insertion of the segment into the inner casing, the cap portion is placed around the extended wall portions of said inner casing and, in doing so, will not only close the container, but will also force the walls of the inner casing inwardly against the segment to positively lock it against movement. Upon removal of the cap portion, the side walls of the inner casing will spring outwardly to release the segment for easy removal from the housing.
