Abstract
A pouch for holding cards, flat sheets, photos, pictures and also a disc such as a CD or DVD: the pouch having lateral seams defining lateral sides, a bottom seam defining the bottom side of the pouch, and a downward recess in the bottom seam for nesting of a disc in the recess. A top flap above the upper open end of the pouch. Laterally inwardly extending upper and lower sets of seams holding the flap to the backing strip. The upper seams are of a longer length inward in the lateral direction. The upper and lower seams define a nest area at the top region of a disc and cooperate with recess at the bottom to hold the disc against lateral shifting. Single and plural arrays of the pouches on the backing are possible.

A pouch for holding and displaying an object, the pouch comprising:
- a backing defining a first side of the pouch;
- a pouch layer defining an opposite outer side of the pouch the pouch layer being comprised of a material enabling viewing into the pouch;
- the outer side of the pouch being seamed to the backing at a plurality of seams defining the pouch, the seams including opposite lateral side seams at and defining lateral sides of the pouch, and a bottom seam defining a bottom side of the pouch;
- the pouch having a top side that is open to provide access for the object into the pouch;
- a flap comprising a strip of material above the open side of the pouch, the flap being defined by
- a respective lower seam extending laterally inward, from each of the lateral side seams toward the other lateral side seam, inward a first shorter distance ending at spaced apart, first inward ends of the lower seams and defining a lower central region between the first ends;
- a respective upper seam spaced above the lower seam and extending laterally inward, from each of the lateral side seams toward the other lateral side seam, inward a second longer distance ending at spaced apart second inward ends of the upper seams that are further laterally inward than the first inward ends, the second ends defining an upper central region between the second ends, each of the first and second inward ends of the lower and upper seams being positioned at a respective chord of a disc that may be positioned in the pouch for helping define a nest for receiving a then upper region of the disc and for preventing lateral movement of the disc in the pouch when the disc is placed in the pouch with a then lower region of the disc toward the bottom seam of the pouch and when the flap is positioned over the then upper region of the disc.
