Abstract: A blister package (10) and method for manufacturing the blister package include an upper wall member (14) (e.g., front panel), a lower wall member (16) (e.g., backer) and a printing (20) (e.g., print, decoration, advertising), where the upper wall member is formed to effectively hold an article (12) (e.g., toothbrush, razor) preferably by accommodating specific geometry of the article. The lower wall member is preferably formed (e.g., molded, thermoformed) after printing from a flat sheet of material (e.g., plastic) to resemble a cylindrical or cone based final shape linearly along or parallel to the lower wall member's longitudinal axis (46). The printing is applied to the flat sheet of material without distortion and appears on the final shaped lower wall member without the appearance of distortion.
