A storage package for a recording medium configured to resemble a book includes a paper board panel releasably attached to first and second plastic, recording medium-holding components, each including a planar surface having means on one face for holding a recording. Upstanding wall portions on one of the components nest within the corresponding wall portions of the other component when the components are assembled together. The paper board panel is uncreased, unscored and unfolded and includes first and second panel areas for adhesive attachment of the plastic components. During assembly, the paper board panel is tautly stretched about and adhesively bonded to the assembled plastic components along the faces of the planar surfaces opposite the recording medium holding faces and along a transverse spline edge of the assembled, the creases defining the spline of the book being formed in the paper board panel during adhesive bonding.

1. A storage package for a recording medium comprising a paper board component attached to two plastic, recording medium-holding components, configured to resemble a book, said package including:A. a paper board component defining a flat panel having a pair of opposed lateral sides and a pair of opposed transverse sides which are generally perpendicular to said lateral sides, said panel including a first panel area for attachment of a first plastic, recording medium-holding component and a second panel area for attachment of a second plastic, recording medium-holding component, said first and second components being separated by a third panel area for defining the spine of said book; B. first and second plastic components for receiving and holding a recording medium, each of said components defining: (i) a generally planar surface having opposite faces for receiving and maintaining a recording medium on a first face thereof, said planar surface having a pair of opposed lateral sides and a pair of opposed transverse sides which are generally perpendicular to said lateral sides for forming marginal edges defining the peripheral extent of said surface, a recess in the planar surface for receiving a recording medium therein and means in said recess for releasably retaining said recording medium in said recess; (ii) upstanding wall portions on said planar surface proximate the marginal edges of said planar surface for defining a spacing rim for separating peripheral marginal areas from interior areas of said planar surface, said wall portions being positioned just inside the marginal edges of said planar surface and extending continuously along the opposed lateral sides, one of said transverse sides, and along transversely spaced segments of the opposite transverse side, said spaced segments extending inwardly from each of the opposed lateral sides; (iii) said wall portions on said second component being positioned a greater distance inside the marginal edges of said planar surface than on said first component such that, when said components are brought together into first face to first face proximity, the wall portions of said second component nest within the wall portions of said first component with the outside of the wall portions of said second component immediately adjacent the inside of the wall portions of said first component, the tops of the wall portions of the first component engage the marginal edges of the planar surface of said second component and the ends of the spaced segments and the planar surfaces define therebetween an elongate, transversely extending slot, the separation between the planar surfaces of said components being determined by the height of said first component wall portions; and (iv) projections positioned on the outer surface of the wall portions of the spaced segments of said second component and projections positioned at corresponding locations on the inner surface of the wall portions of the spaced segments of said first component for snap fitting one over the other for releasably engaging and latching said first and second components together in an assembled configuration; said paperboard component being bonded to said assembled components with the third panel area of said paperboard component adjacent the nested spaced segments of said assembled components.2. A storage package, as claimed in claim 1, wherein said generally planar surface of each of said components has a circular recess formed therein for receiving said recording medium and a rosette within said recess for releasably holding said recording medium in said recess.3. A storage package, as claimed in claim 2, wherein said generally planar surface of each of said components further includes diametrically opposed finger wells communicating with and extending outwardly from said recess for allowing the insertion of fingers therein when removing said recording medium from said recess.4. A storage package, as claimed in claim 1, wherein said paper board component has dimensions substantially corresponding to the sum of the lateral dimensions of said first and second components plus a transversely extending spine panel between the first and second components, said spine panel being defined by a first transverse crease at the joinder of said first panel area and said spine panel and a parallel second transverse crease at the joinder of said spine panel and said second panel area, said package being pivotable about said creases between a package open orientation wherein said spine and first and second panel areas are substantially coplanar for exposing said recesses in said first and second components to enable access thereto and a package closed orientation wherein said spine panel extends perpendicularly to the generally planar plastic surfaces of said components along one transverse side thereof and said first and second panel areas overlie the undersides of said generally planar plastic surfaces to block access to said recesses and to protect the recording media therewithin.
