Abstract
A jewel case (30) has a first housing section (31) and a second housing section (32) hinged to the first housing section (31). Two boxed hinge members (38, 39) are operatively connected to the first housing section (31). The second housing section (32) has first and second posts (51) adapted and configured to be positioned in bores (41a). The bores have perimeters sufficiently greater than 180 degrees, wherein the posts (51) enter the bores (51a) generally along the axis of the bores (41a). The second housing section (32) has a stop member which limits opening to substantially 180 degrees.
