ABSTRACT:
A reclosable container of substantially rigid material has a rectangular opening providing access to the interior of the container and a rectangular lid hinged at one side of the opening. A planar corner flap portion of the lid, defined by a hinge line extending generally diagonally with respect to the lid, swings from a first position overlying a substantially rigid planar portion of the container, such as an interior front flap hinged at the side of the opening opposite the lid, to a second position away from the front flap. A two-part fastener releasably secures the flap portion of the lid to the front flap of the container to maintain the lid closed, the fastener having a first part secured to the front flap and a second part to the corner flap closely adjacent the aforesaid hinge line. The corner flap extends outwardly beyond the second fastener part, with the outer portion serving as a lever for swinging the corner flap from its first position in which the fastener parts are interengaged for maintaining the lid closed to its second position in which the fastener parts are disengaged for permitting the lid to be opened, the container being reclosable by swinging the corner flap back to its first position.
