  • Patent number: 4055250
    Abstract: A one piece folding blank has front, side and rear panel groups that each fold towards a central floor panel to form a vehicle simulating display. A tab lock formed in the front panel engages an underlying portion of the side panels that is spaced from the floor panel to secure the front panel in the folded, vehicle simulating position. When folded, the panel groups form the walls of a box-like rear container portion of the display with at least the side and rear walls having a double wall construction. In one embodiment, the rear container portion is secured in the folded condition by locking tabs and tuck flaps formed on the periphery of the panel groups that engage, respectively, slots formed in the floor panel and spacings between the double wall panels.
