Figure 11 is a perspective View showing an element of the package shown in Figure 10;
Figure 12 is a perspective view of a package element showing how it may be formed with cut out portions for decorative purposes; and
Figures 13, Vlll and 15 are sectional views illustrating various artistic effects that may be accomplished in packages made in accordance with the teachings ofthe present invention.
To illustrate the invention, I have shown on the drawings a commodity stick package I I comprising a base I3 adapted to receive and support one end of a commodity stick I5 which may comprise a stick of lip rouge, shaving soap, deodorant or styptic material, orother commodity in bar or stick-like form and adapted for consumption from the base remote toward the base mounted end thereof. f
The package may include a removable cover I'I having a closed end and an open mouth adapted to iit upon a shoulder I9 formed on the base. The open end of the cover may thus frictionally grip the shoulder I9 in order to retain the cover on the base, or intertting latch means may be provided, as by forming a small button or projection on the shoulder I9 and a cavity on the inner wall of the cover at its open end in position to latchingly receive the button or projection on the base. The base I3 is formed with a cavity 2I for the snug reception of the end `of the commodity stick, and this cavity may be formed with suitable means for retaining the stick in the base.
The package shown in Figures 1 to 5 is ofV rectangular sectional shapeand Vis especially suited for use as a container for lipstick, since the rectangular shape allows the usable end of the stick to be presented as a chisel edge for convenient application. Y
They package, as shown in Figures 6 and 10, has circular sectional shape and is well adapted for use as a container for shaving soap sticks and other commodities in sticks having cylindrical surfaces. `As shown in Figures 6 and 10, the basev I3- may be formed with screw threads 23 on the inner surfaces of the cavity 2| to threadingly receive the end of the stick, or, as shown in Figures 2 and 5, holding lugs 25 may be formed on the inner walll of the cavity in position to project 'intothe'material of the commodity stickin order to hold 'it in place. The threaded arrangement shown Figures 6 and 10 is particularly Well adapted for the retention of shaving ,soap sticks, while the lugs 25 are well'a'dapted for the retention of sticks comprising relatively soft material such as lip rouge. In order to aid in assembling the commodity stick in the base, the latter may be formed with vent openings 27 which, as shown in Figures 6 and 10, may extend through the bottom of the base, lout the vent openings may, as shown in Figures 2 and 5, be arranged in the cavity-forming side walls of the base.
The base I3 supports a sec-tional sheath 29 comprising a plurality of interfitting bands 3|. These Ibands preferiably each comprise a neck portion 33, adaptedV to snugly embrace the lateral surfaces of the commodity stick, and a skirt portion 35 having an inner diameter sized to snugly and frictionally receive and embrace the outer surfaces of the neck portion 33 of an adjacent band so that a series of bands may be assembled in interfitting end-to-end relationship to provide the sectional sheath 29, Each band is preferably formed at the junction of its neck and skirt portion to provide an outer lshoulder' 31 facing the neck end of the lorand in position to engage the edge of the skirt portion of an adjacent band embracing said neck portion, and an inner shoulder 39 facing the skirt end of the band to engage the end of the neck of the adjacent band fitted therein. The edge of the band defining the neck portion 33 is Vrounded, as shown at 4I, and the shoulder or seat 39 is preferably similarly rounded.
The upper portions of the walls defining the cavity 2| in the base are preferably formed to provide a groove 43 -similar to the loand groove or shoulder 31, the groove 43 extending inwardly of the shoulder I9 to receive the skirt portion of the band at one end of the sectional sheath 29; and the walls of the lbase are also preferably formed to provide a neck portion 45 inwardly of the groove 43 and'having outer surfaces shaped in conformity with the band neck portion 33 so that said neck portion 45 may snugly and frictionally t within the skirt portion of the band vat one end of 4the sectional sheath. To this end, the outer surfaces of the neck portion 45 are rounded to lit the seat 39 0f said end band of the sheath.
The cover Il also, as shown in Figure 10, may be formed with an internal shoulder 41 spaced from the closed end of the cover, said shoulder facing the open end of the cover Iand being positioned, when the cover is mounted on the loa-se, to engage the shoulder 31 of the band which forms the base remote end of the sectional sheath. The cover, when mounted on the base, thus serves to aid in retaining the bands of the sectional sheath pressed down the one upon the other and upo-nthe base.
The commodity may conveniently be assembled in the package by rst assembling a sufcient number of bands in interfltting relationship to form a sheath of appropriate length. The So assembled bands may then be dropped into the cover through the open end thereof, the shoulder 4l serving to support the sectional sheath in position in the cover. The commodity stick may be assembled in the base, whereupon the base may be used as a holder for pressing the stick endwise through the sectional sheath until thebase enters the open end of the cover I'I and the groove 43 engages the skirt of theA Yend-hand ofthe sheath.
The base vmay 4be providedwith an outstanding flange 49 Yin position tov engage the open end of the cover, said ange 49 being preferably-knurled, as at 5I, to facili-tate the grasping of the base in removing the 4c'ov'er therefrom in order to uno er siifae s-"ofliiieie ver preferably e f-uinfi'n sectiohalfdinien'siris I'from the d crisitneiof--toAtnefoienend. frffdesired, "ir 'ayekmiiieiftiieriiriserougherip'ortiorisffltne i he coi/erf thus improving the appearle 1package fand'iaffordi-ng a^ convenient pmghandholdjthatinay'be usedin retlie *cove fim tthbas'e tto uncover fthe 'iis-e.

The Sectional sheathmay thus be removeduntilthe-'commodity stick is Worn down to the base, The removable cover Il, however, may continue' inuse'assuch throughout the cionsjimpticnof the" commodity stick.
twill'be Mobvious' that' thepackage of v'present invention can be made of any suitable preferred or convenient material. For example, the bands 3| may be built up of paper or cardboard or may be made of metal. The cover and base also may be made of paper or cardboard suitably formed by pressing or other forming or molding process. I prefer, however, to form all of the elements of the package of moldable plastic material, and in this connection, it will be seen that all of the parts of the package may be made from three molding forms or dies, the bands of the sectional sheath being identical parts.
It will be noted also that the package may be made as indicated in Figures 4, 7, 8 and 9 to accommodate commodity sticks of any desired sectional shape, including oval .as well as circular shapes, and also square, rectangular, triangular, polylateral, fluted and prismatic shapes, the ability to accommodate sticks of any desired sectional configuration being one of the Valuable `f1 aises' Wnite"\bard`'"r-3formedyiithestarshaped -fopenin s-is shown use'diwitnf'a biubaseis, in

In packages of non-circular sectional shape, each band is splined with the adjacent bands, whereby relative turning of the bands with respect to each other and the base is prevented.
It is within the contemplation of my present invention to make the cover Il of transparent material so as to reveal the bands 3| and the commodity stick therethrough. It is also within the contemplation of the invention to make the bands 3| themselves of transparent material so that the color, texture and quality of the packaged commodity may be revealed without opening the package; and, of course, the employment of a transparent cover I1 is especially effective where decorative effects are embodied in the package through the use of varicolored bands, or where the bands have been perforated or notched as described.
It is thought that the invention andits nucent merous attendant advantages will .be fully understood from theforegoing descriptiomand it is obvious that numerous changes may be made in the form, construction and arrangement of the several parts without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention, or sacricing any of its attendant advantages, the form herein disclosed being a preferred embodiment for the purpose of illustrating the invention.
The invention is hereby claimed as follows:
1. A package for a commodity stick comprising a base forming a mounting Vfor one end of the stick and a tubular sectional sheath on said base and enclosing the lateral surfaces of the stick, said sheath comprising interi'ltting collar elements, each having a neck portion for snugly embracing the stick anda larger skirt portion for snugly embracing the neck portion of an adjacollar element, in frictional engagement therewith, the base having a neck portion of shape duplicating that of the neck portions of' said collar elements and the skirt portion of the collar element adjacent said base snugly embracing and frictionally engaging the neck portion of said base, the collar elements being arranged and conformed so that the same may be demounted, successively, from the base remote end of the stick, as the same is consumed, by slid ing the endmost collar element, axially, from mounted position at the base remote end of the stick, to thereby uncover a portion of the stick for consumption, the interfitting portions forming means frictionally securing adjacent collar elements together in axial alignment to form the sheath.
