ABSTRACT:
A shipping container for a book is provided formed from a single blank of foldable sheet material. The container includes top and bottom major panels, opposed side minor panels, end wall assemblies foldably connected to opposite ends of one major panel, and closure panels foldably connected to opposite ends of the other major panel. First tuck flaps are foldably connected to opposite ends of one side panel. Each closure panel has a foldable second tuck flap extending laterally from one side thereof. Each assembly includes a narrow first panel foldably connected to the one major panel, a second panel foldably connected to the first panel, and a narrow third panel foldably connected to the second panel. The first, second and third panels are arranged in side by side relation. The first panel is folded under the one major panel, and the second panel spans the distance therebetween, and engages an adjacent end surface of the book. The third panel engages the concealed surface of the other major panel. Each closure panel extends between corresponding ends of the major panels and is spaced outwardly from the assembly second panel and cooperates therewith to form a cavity disposed outwardly of the adjacent book end surface. The second tuck flap of each closure panel extends into the cavity and has an edge proximate the assembly second panel. Each first tuck flap extends into the adjacent cavity. The second tuck flaps span the distance between the first and third panels forming the adjacent cavity.
