Abstract
An openable and closable lid is formed at the open end of a container which has a peripheral flange extending inwardly within the container in a plane beneath the open end. The lid comprises a first lid element removably fitted within the open end of the container above the peripheral flange and a second lid element secured to the first lid element as a unit. The first lid element can be formed as an open box with a frame and the second lid element has flaps which are secured to the side walls of the container. By separating one of the flaps from the container, a hinged connection can be formed for the lid unit to the container.
