1. A casing board for use as an information displaying and storage device, said casing board comprising:
- a substrate having an inner surface and an outer surface and being formed from a rigid paper material into a generally rectangular configuration;
an opaque intermediate covering layer affixed to said substrate in a covering relation with at least said outer surface thereof; and
a transparent outer layer formed from flaccid sheet material and affixed to at least one of said substrate and said opaque covering layer at predetermined affixation locations to define a pocket intermediate said transparent layer and said opaque layer, said affixation locations being along at least three edges of said board, said outer layer being formed with at least three transparent flaps formed along at least three edges thereof, said transparent flaps being folded over onto said opaque covering layer and fixed thereto with end portions of each said transparent flap overlying end portions of adjacent, perpendicularly oriented transparent flaps with a remainder of said transparent flaps being fixed to at least one of said inner surface of said substrate and said opaque covering layer with at least one edge of said transparent layer being unaffixed to said board intermediate said covering layer and said transparent layer for forming an access opening for insertion of a sheet-like indicia carrying member into said pocket.

13. A casing board for use as an information displaying and storage device, said casing board comprising:
-
a substrate having an inner surface and an outer surface and being formed from a rigid paper material into a generally rectangular configuration; an opaque intermediate covering layer affixed to said substrate in a covering relation with said outer surface thereof, said covering layer being formed with opaque flaps extending along each of four side edges thereof, said covering layer being fixed to said substrate on at least said inner surface thereof, with said opaque flaps folded over onto said inner surface of said substrate and fixed thereto with end portions of each said opaque flap overlying end portions of adjacent, perpendicularly oriented opaque flaps and fixed thereto at a juxtaposition of opaque flaps with a remainder of said opaque flaps being fixed to said inner surface of said substrate; and a transparent outer layer formed from flaccid sheet material and affixed to at least one of said substrate and said opaque covering layer at predetermined affixation locations to define a pocket intermediate said transparent layer and said opaque layer, said affixation locations being along at least three edges of said board, said outer layer being formed with at least three transparent flaps formed along at least three edges thereof, said transparent flaps being folded over onto said opaque flaps and fixed thereto with end portions of each said transparent flap overlying end portions of adjacent, perpendicularly oriented transparent flaps with a remainder of said transparent flaps being fixed to at least one of said inner surface of said substrate and said opaque flaps with at least one edge of said transparent layer being unaffixed to said board intermediate said covering layer and said transparent layer for forming an access opening for insertion of a sheet-like indicia carrying member into said pocket. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
