Abstract
Abstract A Combined Greeting Card and Candy Holder of foldable construction having a relatively flat, compact candy-receiving and containing compartment defined by front and back panels and opposed side panels. A message panel is hingedly connected to one of the front or back panels of the candy compartment so as to be folded over the candy compartment in a greeting card type of arrangement. An openable closure is provided on the candy compartment so as to permit quick and convenient access to its interior for inserting and removing a piece of candy as a gift to be included with the greeting card.

A combined greeting car and candy compartment made of a single sheet blank having a plurality of score lines for folding said blank and for separating said sheet blank into a plurality of panels, said sheet blank comprising: a message panel having a substantially rectangular configuration; a first side panel having a substantially rectangular configuration and hingedly connected to said message panel at a first fold line along adjacent longitudinal edges of said message panel and said first side panel; a back panel having a substantially rectangular configuration, said back pane hingedly connected to said first side panel at a second fold line along adjacent longitudinal edges of said back panel and said first side panel; a second side panel having a substantially rectangular configuration and hingedly connected to said back panel at a third fold line along adjacent longitudinal edges of said second side panel and said back panel; a front panel having a substantially rectangular configuration, said front pane hingedly connected to said second side panel at a fourth fold line along adjacent longitudinal edges of said second side panel and said front panel; a third side panel having a substantially rectangular configuration and hingedly connected to said front panel at a fifth fold line along adjacent longitudinal edges of said second side panel and said back panel; a tuck panel hingedly connected to said third side panel at a sixth fold line along adjacent longitudinal edges of said third side panel and said tuck panel; a first closure panel hingedly connected to said front panel at a first closure fold line along adjacent latitudinal edges of said first closure panel and said front panel; a reinforcing panel hingedly connected to said first closure panel at a second closure fold line along adjacent latitudinal edges of said first closure panel and said reinforcing panel; a second closure panel hingedly connected to said front panel at a third closure fold line along adjacent latitudinal edges of said second closure panel and said front panel; a glue panel hingedly connected to said second closure panel at a fourth closure fold line along adjacent latitudinal edges of said second closure panel and said glue panel; wherein said candy compartment is formed by folding said sheet blank along said third through sixth fold lines such that said front and back panels and said second and third side panels form opposing, spaced apart walls of said candy compartment and said tuck panel is folded inside said candy compartment to provide an openable closure for access to said candy compartment, said compartment being further formed by folding said sheet blank along said first through fourth closure fold lines so that said first and second closure panels close the opposite ends of said candy compartment and so that said reinforcing panel and said glue panel overlap each other for gluing said reinforcing and glue panels to each other; and wherein said blank is further foldable along said first and second fold lines such that said first side panel and said third side panel are in a generally face-to-face juxtaposition and said message panel is freely foldable to and from a generally face-to-face juxtaposition with said front panel.
