  • Publication number: 20110089678
    Abstract: A lottery ticket is printed onto two substrate sheets where the sheets are laminated together with both of equal length and with the top sheet approximately half the width of the bottom sheet and arranged along one side edge of the bottom sheet leaving approximately half of the bottom sheet exposed and free to fold over the top sheet. A series of break open windows is provided in the front surface of the top sheet which can be opened by a player to expose some of the game indicia printed onto the front face of the bottom sheet and covered also by a layer of scratchoff. Some of the game indicia is located on the front surface of the bottom sheet and is covered by a layer of scratchoff material so that it is on the inside when the bottom sheet is folded over.

  • Publication number: 20040188997
    Abstract: Described herein is a break-open lottery ticket where the ticket is formed by laminating two substrate sheets. The lottery ticket includes variable imaged lottery indicia printed directly onto the inside surface of both sheets the ticket and covered by a layer of scratch-off material. The indicia and the scratch-off material are enclosed within the sheets allowing the outside surfaces to be used for game and promotional information. Either just the first substrate sheet or both sheets are perforated to define a perforated tear line thereon arranged to define a portion of the first substrate sheet which can be opened relative to the second substrate sheet, by the player tearing through the perforated tear line, to expose game data. The perforated tear line defining the portion extends only part way around the periphery of the portion of the first substrate sheet so that when the perforation lines are torn the portion of the first substrate sheet remains attached to the second substrate sheet.
