Abstract

A blister pack for displaying pull chains which includes a transparent cover member having connecting first, second and third recesses for receiving a pull chain, the second recess having a holding region to lock the chain in place. The package further has a flat base member disposed over the cover member and completely covering the recesses. The cover member and the base member are joined together. A method of displaying pull chains in a display package, wherein the chain of a pull chain is locked into a holding region of a transparent cover member such that the knob of the pull chain is permitted to be displayed in a manner which more realistically portrays the appearance same would have when affixed to a ceiling fan.
