Abstract: A composite package for shipping and storing a stack of individual sheets of glass or the like and particularly curved automotive glass articles. The package includes a rigid outer male member and a removable female closure member, each fabricated from a resilient, shock-absorbing material. The sheets of glass are supported on edge by a pair of spaced apart rigid members projecting from the male member into the female closure member and are immobilized therewithin by resiliently contacting pairs of inner braces integrally formed on each of the members. The glass sheets are secured within the package by banding straps threaded through the male and female members and around the glass sheets. The male and female closure members are provided with mating and interfitting joining devices and may be secured together with bandings such as, for example, heat-shrinkable strech wraps, banding straps or the like. The shipping packages are stackable when assembled.
