Bottle-overcap combination

A bottle and overcap combination designed to give this combination a unitary, uninterrupted, cylindrical appearance when the parts are assembled;

• (a) said bottle being provided with a closure and comprising an upper bottle portion and a lower cylindrical body portion having an upper margin, the outside dimension of said upper bottle portion at its greatest horizontal dimension being smaller than the outside diameter of said bottle body portion, said bottle body portion at its upper margin terminating in a seat that extends inwardly and which is adapted to serve as a seat for a lower margin provided for in said overcap;
• said upper bottle portion having an undercut in its surface near its lower end, said undercut being spaced apart vertically from said seat;
• (b) said overcap being cylindrical in form and having an outer diameter that is substantially the same at the outer diameter of said bottle body portion, said overcap being formed with an inner surface having a bead extending inwardly of said overcap inner surface, said bead being spaced vertically from the lower margin of said overcap and positioned so as to engage the undercut on said upper bottle portion when said overcap is snapped into position on said bottle, whereby when said overcap is positioned on said bottle the combination has the appearance of a unitary uniterrupted cylinder.
