The back has a fulcrum projecting from one of edge of the back, and a nest open at an inner side of the back to receive a cassette and which projects from an outer side of the back to hold the cassette out of the way of the index print sheet. A box has a support for the back of each container, a groove arranged to receive the nest of each container when the back of the container is laid against the support, and slot-like means adapted to receive the fulcrum of each container to support the container for pivoting about its fulcrum to lower its back onto the support and its nest into the groove.
