Abstract
Abstract A blister package formed on a display card for the dispensing of articles contained within the blister, where the blister and flange are formed integral with an upper portion of the flange bent at an angle of approximately 20* rearwardly relative to the remainder of the flange, and a cut or slot is provided at the point of bending of the flange to allow, when the flange is returned to a planar position, the upper portion of the blister to overlap the lower portion thereof and retain the contents of the blister therein. Bending the top portion of the card mounting the blister and flange rearwardly opens the blister and exposes the contents for removal.
