Abstract
A container for oblong articles includes a bottom wall, two side walls and two end walls connecting the side walls. A cover is pivotally attached through a film-type hinge to one of the end walls and is in its closed position in locking engagement with the other end wall. A tongue extends upwardly from the upper edge of each end wall. A flange and a web located inwardly from the flange extend downwardly from each end portion of the cover. In the closed position of the container, the tongue extends between the flange and the web and into a slot defined in the cover between the flange and the web and an inwardly projecting nose formed on the flange is received by a recess defined in the tongue.
