ABSTRACT:
A carton fabricated from a unitary blank, which is separable into first and second closable units, is provided. The carton comprises first and second main walls, side walls and end closures which define a hollow carton. Means are provided for separating the hollow carton into first and second closable units, each of the units, initially upon separation, having an open end facing the other of the closable units. Means are also provided for closing the open end of each unit when the carton is separated. These closing means comprise a pair of elongated, oppositely disposed closure members and a pair of securing means. Each closure member, which is captured from a main wall of the other of the closable units, comprises a base portion, a shaft portion, and a terminal tongue portion. The base portion of each closure member is non-severably connected to the unit it closes. Each of the securing means in the main wall is positioned to removably secure a tongue portion of one closure member upon closing the open end of each closable unit following separation of the carton.
