Abstract
There is provided a shipping package for casket folders, comprising a pair of casket-base folders each having stocky and stiff edges bordering the inside side of each folder. The casket-base folders are positioned against each other with their inside sides facing each other. The inside sides and the stocky edges of both casket-base folders define a hollow space, in which there are enclosed a pair of casket-cover folders and a pair of pressed casket-interior liner cloths. The casket-interior liner cloths are attached to liner-cloth stretchers which are affixed to one of the casket-base folders. A pair of oblong boxes enclose the ends of the casket-base folders and extend over a portion of the juxtaposed stocky edges. The shipping package is advantageous for affording a firm handling thereof and for its ability to retain the casket-interior liner cloths in a pleated, wrinkle-free condition until the package is opened again at destination.
