It includes a conventional die-cut, corrugated fiberboard, shipping container having four regular, slotted bottom flaps. The two end panel flaps are offset to the thickness of a platform to which the articles are ''''skin filmed.'''' The platform has two edge flaps and four offset stems located at each of its corners. The stems rest upon the bottom edges of the container during assembly, the container and platform both being inverted, and the edge flaps are snugly wedged against the offset end flaps and sandwiched between the end panel flaps and the side panel flaps of the container. The container is easily assembled and is a mechanically tight and shock insulated container for sample articles.
