A recording disc enclosure is disclosed, having semi-rigid top and bottom portions, with adjoining sides forming an enclosed space therebetween. An aperature sized to pass a recording disc therethrough is disposed through one side of the enclosure. A closure strip is disposed to cover the aperature in the closed position, and to be manually biased along a top and bottom guide path to extend substantially beyond the profile of the enclosure in the open position. The closure strip, when in the open position may be biased to rotate approximately 90 degrees to an open position in alignment with one of the sides adjoining the aperture side. Top or bottom portions of the enclosure may be transparent to provide a visual indication of the contents of the enclosure. Alternately visual symbols may be disposed upon the top or bottom portion of the enclosure, and preferably upon at least one side, to provide identification of the contents of the enclosure.

A recording disc enclosure, which comprises: (a) a semi-rigid, generally rectangular top portion; (b) a semi-rigid, generally rectangular bottom portion substantially the size of the top portion; (c) four side portions adjoining said top and bottom portions about the periphery of said top and bottom

A recording disc enclosure, which comprises: (a) a semi-rigid, generally rectangular top portion; (b) a semi-rigid, generally rectangular bottom portion substantially the size of the top portion; (c) four side portions adjoining said top and bottom portions about the periphery of said top and bottom portions, forming an enclosed area between said sides and said top and bottom portions, said enclosed area sized to receive a recording disc therein; (d) an elongated aperture disposed through one of the side portions, said aperture of a size sufficient to pass a recording disc therethrough; (e) an externally disposed top and bottom guide slot means, extending in parallel alignment substantially along the top and bottom portions of the enclosure in proximity to the aperture side; (f) an elongated closure strip having a side sized to substantially cover the elongated aperture, the closure strip further having top and bottom confronting portions adjoining the closure strip side in spaced relation; (g) a top and bottom guide post means, disposed upon the confronting top and bottom portions of the closure strip, the guide post means sized to align and guide the closure strip along the guide slot means from a closed position substantially covering the aperture to an intermediate extended position parallel to the aperture side; and (h) a relieved area disposed at one end of the top and bottom guide slot means, the relieved area positioned to receive the top and bottom guide post means when the closure strip is extended to the intermediate position, the relieved area providing a means for rotation of the extended closure strip from the intermediate position to a position tangent to the closed position of the closure strip, and adjacent to the side of the enclosure adjoining the aperture side. An enclosure for protecting a recording disc therein, which comprises: (a) a semi-rigid, generally rectangular top portion having at least three depending sides; (b) a semi-rigid, generally rectangular bottom portion sized to align with the depending sides of the top portion; (c) a means to secure the top and bottom portions in spaced relation to form an enclosed space of a size sufficient to receive a recording disc therebetween; (d) an aperture disposed through one side of the enclosure, the aperture sized to receive a recording disc therethrough; (e) an externally disposed top and bottom guide slot means, extending in parallel alignment substantially along the top and bottom portions of the enclosure in proximity to the aperture side; (f) an elongated closure strip having a closure side with adjoining top and bottom confronting sides, the closure strip sized to extend substantially the length of the aperture in a closed position, with confronting top and bottom sides of the closure strip closely received about the guide slot means; (g) a top and bottom guide post means, disposed upon the confronting top and bottom sides of the closure strip, the guide post means positioned to align and guide the closure strip along the top and bottom guide slot means; wherein the closure strip may be manually biased from the closed position to an intermediate extended position in parallel alignment with the closed position, and subsequently rotated from the intermediate extended position to a position adjacent to the side adjoining the aperture side and tangent to the closed position of the closure strip.
