Pegboard game unit with utility compartment

Claim 1

A combined pegboard and receptacle game comprising a hollow body of generally triangular shape having a top wall forming a pegboard with a plurality of vertical apertures arranged in a triangular pattern on the wall and sized for removably supporting a plurality of pegs to be selectively moved from aperture to aperture in the play action, and a bottom wall and pair of adjacent upright side walls on which the top wall is supported and secured to define a storage receptacle for the pegs when not on the top wall, said body having a side access opening between the divergent ends of said side walls through which the pegs may be selectively inserted and removed, said top and bottom walls having oppositely disposed U-shaped channels formed adjacent the access opening, a thin flat flexible side closure wall for the access opening slidably arranged in said channels, said side closure wall having a fastener at one end including a rounded hook portion extending around a rounded end of one side wall and a transversely elongated bump along its inner surface inwardly of the hook extending substantially the full width of said side wall closure to engage the other side of said one side wall to hold the closure wall in the closed position, a substantial portion of the ends of the top and bottom walls along the outer sides of the channels being removed to permit the closure wall to flex along its length and throughout its lateral extent so that the bump will clear the end of said one side wall to move between open and closed positions with the channels being positioned to draw the portion of the closure wall between the hook portion and bump firmly against the end of said one side wall in the closed position.
