TELESCOPE CANDY BOXES

These are made in the same manner as plain set-up boxes, with the exception of the lid which is as deep as the box, and which sets down over the sides of the box, permitting the box to contain an overflow of candy. Boxes of this kind usually have the lid loose wrapped, but many are tight wrapped, or are covered in the regular way on covering and topping machines.

Telescope Perfumery Box.

The loose wrapped candy box is very popular on account of its artistic appearance. The same wrapper tightly glued on the lid would not look as well as the loose wrap. This statement applies to telescope candy boxes. The loose wrap plan saves a considerable quantity of glue, as the glue is applied only to the margins of the wrapper.

The majority of telescope candy boxes are covered on wrapping machines, although many are covered by hand. The shape of this style of box is long and rather narrow, so far as the smaller sizes are concerned. They are made in ¼, ½, 1, 2 and 5 pound sizes.
