A generally flat, reversible package for shipping and displaying on an hanging fixture in either of two positions a finite number of consumer products which products have a volume defined by given dimensions, such as length, width and height. This package comprises a front generally flat sheet, a back generally flat sheet with the sheet lying in a plane adapted to be vertical when the package is on the fixture, the sheets each have a vertically extending center line dividing the sheets into side-by-side, vertically spaced first and second display segments. A self-sustaining blister container formed from transparent plastic and having a total volume for housing a preselected number of the product to be displayed in side-by-side relationship is provided with means for securing this blister container on the first display segment extending from the flat front sheet a distance generally corresponding to the heights of the products lying in a single layer on the front sheet and in a preselected location and occupying a given area on the first segment of the front sheet, a rear access means, such as an opening through an opaque intermediate sheet, for allowing observation of at least one of the products in the container from the back sheet and having an hanger aperture through the package at a position generally on the aforementioned center line and vertically above the container. In addition, a method of using this reversible package is provided wherein two packages are nested together when placed upon a cantilever hanging fixture, such as a pegboard arm.

A method of displaying several packages of consumer products on a single cantilever hang fixture having a pair of parallel spaced support arms extending form a support wall horizontally outwardly, said method comprising the steps of: (a) providing a generally flat reversible package comprising a front sheet and a back sheet adhered together back-to-back to form a composite, substantially planar display panel having a generally flat front surface and a generally flat back surface, said display panel lying in a plane adapted to be vertical when said package is hung on the said fixture, said front surface having a vertically extending center line dividing said front surface into side-by-side first and second display segments, a self-sustaining blister container formed from transparent plastic, said blister container having a total volume for housing N products in side-by-side relationship and secured on said first display segment extending from said front surface a distance generally corresponding to said height of one of said products and occupying a given area of said first segment, rear vision access means for allowing observation of at least one of said products in said container from said back surface, and a hanging aperture formed at the top of said package, generally at the center of gravity of the loaded said package; (b) placing a first of said packages on said fixture with said front surface facing away from said support wall; (c) placing a second of said packages on said fixture with said front surface facing toward said support wall to nest with said first package; and, (d) continuing said steps (b) and (c) to produce a number of nested first and second packages on said cantilever fixture. A generally flat reversible package for shipping and displaying, in either of two reversed positions of the package on a hang fixture having a pair of horizontally extending and spaced apart parallel support arms, a finite number (N) of like consumer products each having a circumventing volume with the same given dimensions of length, width and height, said package comprising a front sheet and a back sheet adhered together back-to-back to form a composite, substantially planar display panel having a generally flat front surface and a generally flat back surface, said display panel lying in a plane adapted to be vertical when said package is hung on said fixture, said front surface having a vertically extending center line dividing said front surface into side-by-side first and second display segments, a self-sustaining blister container formed from transparent plastic, said blister container having a total volume for housing N products in side-by-side relationship, means securing said blister container on said display panel in a position extending outwardly from the said front surface thereof and located entirely within the profile of said first display segment and projecting outwardly from the said front surface on said display panel a distance generally corresponding to said height of said circumventing volume of each respective one of said products, rear vision access means for allowing observation of at least one of said products in said container from said back surface, and a pair of hang apertures through said package at a position generally vertically above said container and located within respective ones of said first and second display segments, with the one of said hang apertures located within said first display segment being vertically aligned with the center of gravity of the loaded package and the two said hang apertures being horizontally spaced apart a distance matching the spacing of said pair of support arms and symmetrically located with respect to the said center line of said package.
