Abstract

An information display means for garment hangers has a tubular body with a web of resilient material extending across the opening through the body. The web has an opening therethrough through which the hanger hook can be passed which opening is of a size and shape which will grip the hook with sufficient force to effectively hold the body against inadvertent rotation about the hook and thus keep the information visible. A single construction is capable of use on hangers having a wire hook and molded plastic hooks of a variety of cross-sectional shapes.
