摘要 A holder for storing protective cases for tape cassettes is provided. The holder comprises a rectangular enclosure which is sealed off at one end by a resilient wall member and is at least partially sealed off at its other end by a resilient retaining wall member. The enclosure is adapted to quite snugly receive the number of protective cases to be stored since additional room need not be allowed to permit one to reach into the enclosure to effect removal of one of the protective cases. Such removal is readily effected by pushing on the resilient wall member and forcing the desired protective case to at least partially move out of the enclosure so that it can be grasped.
