A tape cassette case has a main wall, a cover wall, with peripheral walls which extend from each, and a hinge formed from a back wall to connect the main wall to the cover wall. A locking means is provided and comprises a slider member slidably mounted onto a support member that forms part of one peripheral wall. The locking means is biased away from the one peripheral wall in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slider member by coil springs and pins. There are two projecting members projecting from the other peripheral wall, so that when the case is closed, the slider member may be slid in one direction to engage with the projecting members, thereby locking the main wall and the cover wall together, when the slider member is moved in the opposite direction the slider member is disengaged from the projecting portions, thereby allowing the case to be opened. The locking means is provided with projections and corresponding cut-outs so that the slider member may only be slid when it is pushed in against the force of the biasing springs. Additional locking means are provided that comprise rectangular finger portions and corresponding apertures. The outside surfaces of the main wall and the cover wall are provided with ridges and recesses, respectively, so that a plurality of tape cassette cases may be stacked. Guide members are also provided for cooperating with the rails of a stacking frame to facilitate stacking and securing several cases together.
