Abstract: A system for shipping and displaying small articles, the system having three parts consisting of rectangular display box with an open top; a metal rack to carry the goods thereon, which fits within the display box; and a shipping carton, which has an open bottom designed to slip over the top of the display box when the rack is in the box. When the goods are shipped hanging on the metal rack, the only step required for display at the retail end is removal of the shipping carton from the display box and placement of the display box, with the goods hanging from the display rack within the box, on the retail sales floor.
