Abstract

A package (20) from which elongated strand material (26) of a coil (24) is dispensed includes a carton (22) in which is disposed the coil. The carton is assembled from a blank (30) of corrugated fiberboard. The blank is formed to include a plurality of interconnected wall panels (32, 34, 36, 38) with each panel having closure flaps extending laterally from opposed side edge surfaces thereof. A tab extends laterally from each of the closure flaps. Each flap is attached hingedly to its associated wall panel and each tab is attached hingedly to its associated flap through a scored line. In end ones (56 and 67) of the closure flaps, portions of the closure flaps extend at least to free outer end edge surfaces of the associated tabs and are normal to end edge surfaces of the blank.
