ABSTRACT:
Top and bottom transparent plastic parts with oppositely inclined side edges slide together to form a box-like enclosure. The top part has a slot at the upper end. The bottom part has a protrusion at its upper end which is received in the slot as the parts slide toward each other. The protrusion has an opening to receive a rod from a display rack. Tabs and tab receiving recesses positively but releasably engage the lower ends of the parts. Upstanding elements with inclined surfaces on the top part cooperate with the tabs on the bottom part to flex the top part as the tabs are received in the recesses and maintain the tabs in the recesses to prevent accidental dislodgement. The tabs are released from the recesses by depressing the top part such that the tabs clear the upstanding elements as the parts slide apart. Resilient elements extending from the side walls of the bottom part retain the band in a position centered within the enclosure.
