The storage case includes a compact disc jewel case without a disc retaining mechanism therein. A foam insert resides within the compact disc jewel case and has at least one precut cut-out section therein which is removable to provide at least one space in the foam insert to receive a small format memory card. The jewel case is preferably formed from a clear plastic material and there is preferably an insert sheet adapted to be retained proximate to a front wall of the jewel case. The insert sheet includes at least one punch-out section therein which corresponds to and aligns with the at least one precut cut-out section in the foam insert when the jewel case is closed thereby allowing a user to view and read the label on any small format memory cards residing in the CD jewel case without opening the case.Field of SearchFOR HOLDING A MACHINE READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM (E.G., COMPACT DISC, PHONOGRAPH RECORD, TAPE, FLOPPY DISK)For holding plural diverse recording media in the same holder For holding an optical disc (e.g., compact disc) Jacket or folder Including book-type cover Diverse retainers for one or more articles Specimen or photo slide Foamlike retainer For holding a housed computer disk (e.g., floppy disk) | |
