Abstract: An advertising attachment to be used with a scanning plate of a hanger bracket where the advertising attachment has at least a base plate on which advertisements or product information can be printed. The advertising attachment has an opening through which information displayed on the face of the scanning plate can be read or scanned. An additional plate may be used to provide a more suitable surface for printing or to reduce costs. The advertising attachment has a structure for mounting, for instance, mounting hooks, parallel gripping ridges, or an insertion slot in the back of the base plate. Such an advertising attachment provides a highly simplified way of displaying advertisements within a compact display space.
