  • Patent number: 5027947
    Abstract: A reclosable package includes a container to hold a commercial article. A portion of the back of the container is left open to form an area sufficient to remove the commercial article from the container. A sleeve, working in a sliding relationship with the container, is used to cover the removal area for shipment and display. The sleeve may be removed by the customer to reveal the removal area, allowing the customer to remove or return the commercial article without the need to damage the container. The same sleeve is reused to cover the removal area without damaging the package or the commercial article.
