The stock used for the partitions is usually lined on both sides with white enameled paper, or with tin foil. The interior of the box and lid is also lined either with white enameled paper, or with tin foil, to correspond with the partitions.
The Charles Beck company, of Philadelphia, supply a paper box-maker’s saw which is particularly adapted to the work of sawing slots for partitions of paper boxes. The E. G. Staude Manufacturing company, of St. Paul, Minn., furnish the Junior and Standard Slotters which are adapted to all kinds of slotting work for paper box partitions. The Staude slotting machines are equipped with automatic feeders, and they are capable of turning out a great amount of finished product very rapidly.
The edges of the partitions are glued to the sides and bottoms of the boxes.
CHAPTER VI
CANDY BOXES
ON account of the greatly increasing demand for candy boxes of all kinds in every section of the country, the writer thought it well to devote a chapter to this important subject, and an attempt will be made to explain the styles and construction of the most popular models of candy boxes which are on the market at the present time. It would be almost impossible for one to describe all of the many different kinds of candy boxes which are being made today, so it is the writer’s intention to mention merely those boxes that may be considered as standard in the trade.
