Abstract
Abstract This disclosure relates to a package which includes a separately utilizable container having a product therein to be dispensed and wherein a removable and replaceable cover is placed on the container to close the same until the contents thereof have been dispensed. The package is completed by a wrap-around jacket which interlocks with both the container and the cover and which firmly retains the cover in place against tampering whereby the package may be readily displayed on shelves for sale. Another feature of the package is that no product identification must be applied to the container in that such product identification may be readily applied to the jacket. A further feature is that the jacket prevents any undesirable accumulation of dust on the cover.
