The present description is directed to a container construction comprising a half slotted container (HSC) construction that provides a display case having a display window formed by a tear-away section. The described display case can be formed from a blank processed either with equipment designed for this purpose or by hand. For example, the blank may be processed through flexo-folder-gluer machinery to produce a glued, folded blank that can be opened using currently available case erector machinery or can be produced through manually executed steps, or through a combination of machine implemented and manual steps.
Referring to Fig. 1, a die cut blank 10 is shown for illustrating one or more aspects of the display case described herein. In a use of the blank to form a one-piece display case 8, see Fig. 7, the blank 10 may be formed of a corrugated cardboard material and may be die cut to the shape shown herein, although other materials and variations of the illustrated shape may be provided within the scope of the display case described and claimed herein. The blank 10 illustrated in Fig. 1 is a planar piece of material in which an inner side 12 is shown
5 facing out of the page and an outer side 14, see Fig. 2, is facing an opposite direction from the inner side 12.
As seen in Fig. 1, the blank 10 extends in a longitudinal direction between first and second longitudinal edges, generally designated 16 and 18, respectively, The blank 10 further extends in a lateral direction between first and second lateral edges, generally designated 20 and 22, respectively, defining upper and lower lateral edges of the blank 10.

The first panel 24 is connected to the second panel 26 at a first vertical fold line 32, the second panel 26 is connected to the third panel 28 at a second vertical fold line 34, and the third panel 28 is connected to the fourth panel 30 at a third vertical fold line 36.
The second panel 26 comprises a separation line 29 extending from the first vertical edge 38 to the first vertical fold line 32 and defines a first portion 26a or tear-away section above the separation line 29, and defining a second portion 26b or front lip below the separation line 29. In the illustrated embodiment, the separation line comprises a horizontal straight line. However, the separation line 29 could be generally horizontal yet have other line shapes, such as an arc or have an oscillating shape, e.g., a sine wave, triangular wave, square wave or sawtooth wave. It is also contemplated that the separation line 29 could be non-horizontal such that it extends at an angle to horizontal. The separation line 29 could also include plural lines or line segments connected in series, e.g., in different angled orientations or with different or varying arcs, to form a continuous extending line between the first vertical edge 38 and the first vertical fold line 32. The first portion 26a extends in the longitudinal direction between a first vertical edge 38 of the tear-away section and a second vertical edge that coincides with the first vertical fold line 32. The first vertical edge 38 is defined at a vertical separation line 40 aligned with the second vertical fold line 34.
The vertical separation line 40 extends a distance L from the first lateral edge 20, i.e., the upper edge of the blank 10, to the separation line 29. The separation lines 29, 40 may be defined, for example, by a perforated line, or a cut line that extends completely through the material, and may comprise a partial cut though at least one layer of the corrugated material or a cut line interrupted by short sections of bridging (uncut) material.
