Abstract: A holder for a pita bread sandwich or other similar article of food is disclosed. The holder is constructed from a cardboard blank which is cut and scored to define a pair of bottom panels, a pair of side panels hingedly connected to the bottom panels, a pair of outer panels hingedly connected on either side of the side panels, each outer panel having a finger receiving slot thereon, a pair of locking tabs hingedly connected to one of the outer panels, and a pair of locking slits on the outer panel. When assembled in one orientation, the two bottom panels extend down and the two side panels define a pocket open at the top for receiving and holding a pita bread sandwich, the two outer panels serving as supports for standing the holder upright on a table top or other surface. However, by pivoting the two outer panels upward, the outer panels become a combination handle and cover for use in transporting a pita bread sandwich which may be contained in the pocket from one location to another.

Abstract: A holder for use in supporting a pita bread sandwich in an upright position on a table top is constructed from two identical cardboard blanks, each of which is cut and scored to define a trapezoidally shaped lower panel, a pair of trapezoidally shaped side section panels hingedly connected to the sides of the lower panel, a pair of glue flaps hingedly connected on either side of the side section panels, a semicircular shaped upper panel hingedly connected to the top of the lower panel and a plurality of glue tabs hingedly connected to the upper panel along its outer edge. In assembling the holder the side section panels and upper panel on each blank are folded forwardly in front of the lower panel and the glue flaps and glue tabs folded back. The glue flaps and glue tabs on one blank are then secured to the glue flaps and glue tabs respectively on the other blank.
