The manner portions thereof to form an opening in the in which these slits occur in the folds is illuspackage through which the contents thereof trated in Figs. 4 and '5, and the latter fi ure ma be removed. shows the inner wrapper sheet which is oldl he nature of the invention and its dised directly about the cigarettes indicated attinguishing features and advantages will ap- 15 to completely envelop the same. The slits. pear when the following specification is read are designated 16, and it will be understood m connection with the accompanying drawthat the slits in the sheets 10 and 11 occur 70 in in which- I 1 at similar points therein so as to be in registry I igure 1 is aperspective view of acigarette with each other. The slits 16 in the sheets package selected to illustrate the invention, 10 and 11 in their folded condition will occur the package being shown in sealed condition. beneath the stamp 14 in spaced relation with Fig. 2 is a erspective view of the package respect to one edge thereof as shown most 78 shown openedi I clearly in Fig. 3. The inner wrap er sheet Fig. 3 is an enlarged central vertical sec- 10 is so cut as to present tabs 17, w ich will tion of the package with portions broken be disposed side by side when the sheet 10 is away. folded as shown in Fig. 1. The wrapper Fig. 4 is a fragmentary perspective view sheet 10 also has lines of perforations 18 no showing certain features ofthe invention. therein which extend from the slits 16 to Fig. 5 is a fragmentary perspective view the edges of the folds having the tabs 17. In
showing certain features of the inner wrapper this manner the wrapper s eet 10 will have sheet. partly severed portions which are designated In the present instance by way of example 19. The tabs 17 are 0f S11Cl1 len 11 88 to be I a cigarette package is selected to illustrate x ended through theslits 16 in t e wrapper the present invention. A package of this sheets 10 and 11, and through the slits 16' of kind includes wrapper sheets 10 and 11, the he lde wrapper sheet to present roformer being of paper and the latter being of truding ends exterior. of the p kage 8 tinfoil. laid on the outside of the sheet 10. slits 16 in the outside wrapper sheet 13 occur 00 Th sheets 10 and 11 are ada ted to b folded substantially coincidental with one edge of to'form a casing to com letely envelop the stamp 14. cigarettes. A wrapper sheet 12 of paper is 4 From the foregoing it will be apparent folded to form-4 pouch-like body or cover that when the protruding ends of the-tabs 17 a open atone end to reoeiye the casing afores are gripped, the tabs may be pulled first in said. The package also includes a wra per one direction causing the stamp 14 to be sheet of trans arent aper 13 adapted to be broken, and then by exerting a pull on the folded aboutt e pouc -like cover on the out-. tabs 17 in an opposite direction the outer side thereof to com letely seal the packa e. wrapper formed of the sheet 13 Will be Attention is also called to the fact that in the broken, and at the same time the partly levwill be torn from the inner forming an opening in the which the cigarettes may ered portions 19 wrapper sheet 10 package through be removed.
I claim: 1. A sealed package of the class described including an inner wrapper sheet of paper completely enveloping the contents of the package, an outer wrapper sheet of paper sealing the package, slits in the folds of the wrapper sheets, the slits in the folds of the outer sheet being offset with respect to the slits in the folds of the inner sheet, said inner sheethaving partly severed portions, tabs integral with said portions, said tabs being extended outwardly through said slits to pre-' sent protruding ends exteriorly of the package, whereby a pull on said protruding ends of the tabs will break the seal of the package, and will also detach said ortions, to form an opening in the package t rough which the contents of the package may be removed.
2. A sealed package of the class described including a contents enveloping paper inner wrapper, a paper pouch-like cover on the outside of said wrapper, said cover being open at one end, a revenue stamp applied to and extending across the open end of said cover, an outer paper wrapper which seals the package, said inner wrapper having partly severed portions and tabs integral therewith and slits in end folds thereof, said outer wrapper having slits in end folds thereof, the slits in the inner wrapper occurring beneath said stamp, theslits in the outer wrapper occurring substantially coincident with one edge of said stamp, said tabs being extended outwardly through inner and outer wrappers to present protruding ends exteriorly of the package, whereby a pull on said protruding ends in opposite direction will first break the outer wrapper, then break the stamp, and detach the partlysevered portion, to form an opening in the package through which the contents of the package may be removed.
3. A package of the class described includin an inner paper wrapper com let ve oping the contents of the Package, said wrapper'having lines of perforations 1n folds thereof and slits joining said lines to present partly severed portions, each of said portions aving an integral tab, said tabs being extended through said slits to present protruding ends exteriorly of the package in its sealed and wrapped condition, whereby a pull on the protruding ends of the tabs will break the seal of the package, and will also detach 'saidgpartl severed portions, to form an opening in t e package through which the contents of the package ma be removed.
