Abstract
A combination shipping and display structure for neckties or the like. A generally rectangular, open-faced inner carton includes an assembly of tie hanger rods supported from an assembly of horizontal and vertical rods. The top of the inner carton folds backward and includes a flap affording an advertising panel and a tongue retained between the carton back panel and a top horizontal rod member in the display mode. A retainer assembly including spaced U-shaped apertures and baffles laterally supports columns of ties on the hangers. The inner carton and retainer assembly are inserted into a conventional outer carton for shipping.
