Abstract: A labeling device including a generally rectangular sheet having opposite ends, transversely opposite edge margins extending between the ends, and opposite sides. The sheet is wrapped around the cable with the ends of the sheet brought together such that the sheet generally assumes the shape of a tube around the cable with a first of the sides of the sheet facing the cable and a second of the sides facing away from the cable. Interlocking tabs connect the ends of the sheet together. Fingers engaging the cable project outwardly from at least one of the edge margins of the sheet. The distal ends of the fingers are substantially fixed relative to the cable at its point of engagement therewith. The fingers are constructed to permit the tube to be moved lengthwise of the cable relative to the cable and distal ends of the fingers to a position in which they are substantially enclosed by the tube and concealed from view.
