Abstract
Abstract An improved foldably erected dispensing carton particularly for household wrapping materials such as polymeric film, wax paper, metal foil, and the like, wherein the carton embodies a double ply panel having a pressure sensitive adhesive layer interposed between and securing such plies. An aperture is die-cut or otherwise formed in the outer ply to expose a select area of the adhesive, and thereby present a recessed tack spot to which the leading end of the roll can be lightly adhered, and thus prevented from withdrawing into the carton. The double ply panel structure also makes available a folded edge about which the roll material can be dispensed with minimum chance of snagging or binding due to the smooth quality of such edge.
