An opening is provided in the front wall of the cover in position to overlie the striking surface of the matchbook, and a second opening is provided in the back wall to permit a thumb or finger to engage the back of the matchbook. A holding tab projects from the top of the back wall partially across the top of the cover towards the front wall in position to overlie and engage the top of a matchbook positioned in the cavity, and a locking tab projects inwardly from each of the side walls.
