Abstract
An improved package for containing a slab of sliced comestible product disposed in overlapping array, the package including a backing board having rounded and upwardly disposed corners with a smooth radius and lateral edges all of which are covered by the overlapping array of sliced comestible, and a film of transparent flexible material snugly enclosing the backing board and the overlapping array of sliced comestible product with the overlapping array of sliced comestible product interveningly cooperating with the lateral edges and rounded corners of the backing board to prevent puncturing of the film by the lateral edges and upwardly extending rounded corners of the backing board.
Claims8
An improved package for containing a slab of a sliced comestible product with the slices disposed in an overlapping array to display a portion of each slice, said package comprising:
- a backing board formed from a semi-rigid material for supporting slices of the comestible product, said backing board being generally rectangular and planar in shape and having rounded corners with a smooth radius, said rounded corners being angled upwardly and extending towards and embedded in the supported sliced comestible product when in assembled configuration, said backing board having one dimension which is less than the longitudinal dimension of the slab of sliced comestible product and a second dimension transverse to said first dimension which is less than the width of the overlapping array of sliced comestible product thereby overlapping and embedding said rounded, upwardly angled and extending corners of said backing board;
- and
- an enveloping film of substantially transparent flexible sheet material disposed tightly around and snugly enclosing said backing board and the overlapping array of sliced comestible product borne thereon, with the overlapping array of sliced comestible interveningly cooperating with the edges of said rounded, upwardly-angled and extending corners of said backing board to shield and cushion said edges from said film, thereby to permit said film to substantially conform to the contours of the overlapping array of sliced comestible product without being punctured by said edges of said upwardly-angled and extending corners of said backing board.
