  • Patent number: 4270774
    Abstract: Tombola or bingo tickets and booklets of tickets are manufactured in continuous strip form which is concertinaed or fan-folded at intervals of every six or twelve tickets; the strips form caters for the differing ticket or booklet requirements of different players and reduces the high wastage rate which arises when the common demand of three or four tickets or booklets is met by suppliers whose stock is in the form of tablets containing strips of six interconnected tickets or booklets. The continuous strip is weakened transversely between every ticket or booklet to aid detachment thereof from the strip. The number combinations are printed on tickets which are so organized that all the numbers which may be called during a game will be found once, twice, thrice or four times in the tickets located between each pair of adjacent folds in the strip.
