Bingo box

A bingo box comprising:

• relatively rigid first and second containers, each having base and work sidewalls opposite each other, tapered right and left edge walls opposite each other, and wider and narrower end walls opposite each other, said walls being interconnected to define together a storage space therebetween such that when the base sidewall is supported at, and approximately parallel to, a horizontal support surface the end walls are substantially perpendicular to the horizontal support surface and the work sidewall is held above the horizontal support surface at upper edges of the end walls for receiving bingo cards on an angled outer surface of the work sidewall, there being a handle at said narrower end wall of at least one of said first and second containers for being used to carry said bingo box;
• wherein each of said work sidewalls includes at least one angled panel attached to other elements of the respective first and second container by a hinge, said angled panel defining said angled outer surface when said angled panel is in a closed position for closing said storage space, but said angled panel being rotatable on said hinge to an open position for providing access to said storage space;
• wherein said first container includes a right complementary hinge means at an intersection of its tapered right edge wall and base sidewall and the second container includes a left complementary hinge means at an intersection of its tapered left edge wall and base sidewall, said right and left complementary hinge means having the function of engaging one another for allowing said first and second containers to rotate relative to one another between a carrying configuration in which said base sidewalls are adjacent one another and a working configuration in which said base and work sidewalls are approximately coplanar to one another;
• wherein, when said first and second containers are in said carrying configuration said handle can be used for carrying both said first and second containers, and anything in said storage compartments, while said angled panels can be hinged for access to said storage space;
• and
• wherein, when said first and second containers are in said working configuration they can be simultaneously placed on said horizontal support surface, with said base sidewalls adjacent said horizontal support surface, and bingo cards can be place on said angled panel for playing said bingo cards while said angled panels can be hinged for accessing said storage space.
