Abstract: A “through-the-neck” garment hanger is disclosed that may be fabricated with a single component. The hanger has a base portion, first and second slanted side portions, a neck portion, and a hook portion. One of the slanted side portions of the hanger has a free end that is not integrally attached to the rest of the hanger. Thus, a door may be formed between the slanted side portions whereby the hanger may be easily inserted through the neck of a garment.

Abstract: A hanger package and display assembly is disclosed that can be used to both package and ship hangers and also display the hangers. With this assembly, the hangers can be displayed in their own packaging in an aesthetically-pleasing manner. In one embodiment, the assembly comprises top and bottom platforms and at least two spaced-apart rods vertically disposed between the platforms. The rods are spaced-apart from each other by a sufficient distance that when a hanger is placed flat on the bottom platform, the rods are situated in the framed-space of the hanger on opposite sides of the central longitudinal axis of the hanger. In this way, the hanger is retained on the bottom platform by the rods. The two rods should be of sufficient height that a plurality of hangers can be stacked and retained by the rods between the top and bottom platforms.
