Application filed January 7, 1909. Serial No. 471,070.

of St. Louis, Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combined Packing-Boxes and Vrappers, of which the following is a specificatlon containing a full, clear, and exact description; reference being had to the accompanying 1Q drawings, forming a part hereof.

My invention relates to a combined packing box and wrapper, the object of my invention being to provide a simple, inexpensive packing box or carton combined with a wrapper, which is to be delivered to the user in knocked-down form and which boxes or cartons can be readily set upto receive merchandise or the like after which the box or carton is wrapped with the paper forming a part of the device. a

To the above'purposes my invention consists in certain novel features of construction and arrangement of parts which will be hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out '25 in the claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a box or carton of my improved construction, same being set up and wrappedready for delivery; Fig. 2 is a perspective view of one of the boxes or cartons in knocked-down form and in the shape it is delivered to the user; Fig. 3 is a cross section taken on the line 33 of Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is a plan view of the box or carton set up and ready to be acketl; Fig. 5 is a plan view of a portion 0 the device, the same being partially unfolded and set up for use; Fig. 6' is a plan view of the box or carton as the same appears before being set up for use; Fig. 7 is an enlarged vertical section taken on the line7 7 of Fig. 4; Fig. 8 is a section taken on the lin 88 of Fig. 6.

The body of my improved box or carton comprises a base section 1, of'card board or analogous material, preferably rectangular in outline and secured to, or formed integral with the ends of 'this base section 1 are end walls 2 of card board, andformed integral hand side of the base 1 is a side wall 3, which is equal in height to the height of end walls 2.

. The base 1, carrying the walls 2 and 3, is

- positioned on one end of. a large rectangular section 4 of suitable wrapping-paper, said cross section being somewhat wider than the length :of v the base 1, and having suflicient width to wrap entirely around the box when the same is set up and packed; the base -1 is fixed to the wrapper 4 by means of a suitable adhesive, or by small wire staples or like fastening devices.

' Fixed in any suitable manner to the base of the section 4 of wrapping paper and immediately adjacent .to'the right hand side of the base 1, is a section 5 of card board, which is in height equal to the height of the walls 2 and 3, and when said box orcarton is set up for .use this section 5 forms the 'ri ht hand side wall of said box or carton. e-

cured in any suitable manner to the ends of this section 5 are folding end pieces 6, which combine withthe walls 2 to form the end walls of the box or carton, and connecting the ends of these folding end walls 6 is a section 7, which, when the box or carton is setup, combines with the wall 3 to form the left hand side wall of said box or carton. A pocket 8 is formed between the section 4 of wrapping paper and the central portion of the section 5, and. formed in the section 4 of wrapping paper in front of this pocket is an opening 9, which is closed by a section 10 of transparent material, such as thin paper, said pocket being for the ing an address card or bill.

The combined packing box and wrapper so constructed is delivered to the user in knock down form with the parts of the box folded, as shown in Fig. 6 and with the wrapper 4 inclosing the folded body of the box, as seen in Fig. 2, and when the box is to be set up for use the end walls 2 and side wall 3 are swung upward into vertical positions after which the wall 7 is moved into osition against the side wall 3, and in so purpose of recelvoing the end pieces 6 unfold and move into a per, are delivered to the user in knock down in storage, and can be advantageously used' 'for a variety of'purposes; for instance, in clothing stores, dry goods houses, and launform, and therefore economize space while dries. I claim: a

l. A knock-down packing box, comprising a wrapper section, abase section secured to the wrapper section, folding end flaps and a folding side fia carried by said base section, afolding si e wall carried by said base section,-- folding end sections carried by said side wall, and a side wall carried by said *foldin end sections, the said side wall and the said folding end sections cooperating with the first mentioned folding slde flap and end flaps to complete both ends andone side 'of thebox when set up for use.

1 2. A knock-down packing box, comprising a wrapper section, a base section secured to the wrapper section and disposed to one side of the wrapper section, folding end flaps and a foldin side 'flap carried by said base section, a fofilin side wall carried by said base section fol ing end sections carried by saidside wall, and a side wall carried by said folding end sections,- the said side wall and the said folding end sections coiiperatingwith the first mentioned folding side flap and end flaps to complete both ends and one side of the box when "set up for use, t
