ABSTRACT:
A paperboard container and blank therefor. The container is in the form of a tube leaving a recessed bottom closure, the closure defined by bottom-forming panels, the bottom closure having an opening frictionally engaging the threaded end of a light bulb. The container top has a plurality of inwardly folding top closure panels, each formed from a hinged pair of panels. The top closure panels exhibit; in one form of the container, a snap action when closed, to thereby further inhibit accidental opening of the top closure prior to intended removal of the light bulb. When the top closure panels are snapped inwardly and downwardly, the upper portion of the container becomes tapered, permitting it to fit into the recessed bottom of a similar container stacked thereon. The ends of top closure panels conform to the shape of the upper end of the light bulb, thus resiliently supporting it at a plurality of angularly spaced points. In another form of the container, its uppermost portion slopes upwardly, thereby facilitating nesting with a container having a similarly shaped bottom closure.
