Abstract: An article of manufacture comprising a compact disc and convertible package therefor is disclosed. The device comprises a blank divided into four panel members by cruciform pairs of parallel intersecting fold lines. A flap portion is formed adjacent a surface of at least one of said panels and the compact disc is received between the flap and panel. In the merchandizing mode, a stiffener member is interposed between the leaves formed by double height panels, the components being held together by an encompassing film which is preferably transparent. The device may be converted to the storage mode by removing the film, discarding the stiffener member, and folding the panels about the cruciform fold lines to provide a structure in which the disc is encompassed between four thicknesses of material.
