  • Patent number: 5776586
    Abstract: A hang-tag for clothing and the like that includes an integral removable tattoo for promotional purposes. The integral tattoo is formed on a multi-layer-paper backing that is attached to the hang-tag by special pressure sensitive adhesive. The tattoo also includes a water soluble slip layer, a waterproof film coating, and an offset printed design such as a corporate logo, all carried on the backing. The hang-tag is a convenient means of securing information regarding product promotion, pricing, and manufacturing to clothing accessories. The integral tattoo gives the retailer the capability of adding a promotional logo or the like at a greatly reduced cost compared to present methods. It is also likely that the tattoo will be removed and applied elsewhere, thereby generating further publicity.
