Abstract: A series of a plurality of articles includes a panel strip and a plurality of elastic fastening loops. The panel strip includes a plurality of ruptureably-connected panel portions of the plurality of articles. Each of the plurality of elastic fastening loops is secured to a respective panel portion at a bond zone.

Abstract: A unitary sheet-like article has a material sheet and an elastic sheet. The material sheet includes a first thickness and a first edge, The elastic sheet includes a second thickness that is greater than the first thickness and includes an aperture and a second edge. The material sheet and the elastic sheet overlap at an overlap portion defined between the first and second edges. The material sheet and the elastic sheet are bonded together at the overlap portion.

Abstract: A linear series of connected unitary sheet-like articles, each of which comprises a panel flatly conjoined along a unifying flat bond zone with a flexible elastic layer that extends away from the panel and includes an elastic fastening loop. Adjacent articles of the series are ruptureably connected in a manner permitting the series to be handled as a unit while at the same time permitting ruptureable separation of individual articles from the series. In one embodiment, the linear series is wound into roll form.

Abstract: A unitary sheet-like merchandise labeling article that has a labeling tag flatly conjoined along a unifying flat bond zone with a flexible elastic layer that extends away from the tag and includes an elastic fastening loop. The loop sides that define the loop are wider than the thickness of the elastic layer. Further, the flexible elastic layer that extends away from the tag has a thickness greater than the thickness of the tag and has a dispersion zone adjacent the unifying flat bond zone. The dispersion zone allows dissipation of elastic loop in-line stretching forces sufficiently to reduce transmission of such forces into the bond zone.

Abstract: A method for displaying an item includes providing a hang tab and product tag assembly including a first panel, a second panel, and a third panel. The method includes inserting at least a portion of the item through an aperture of the second panel; stretching the second panel to change a size of the aperture and allowing the aperture to conform to dimensions of the portion of the item; inserting at least a portion of a retention mechanism through an aperture of the first panel; and suspending the first panel from the retention mechanism such that the first panel extends at a first angle relative to the second panel, and such that the second panel extends at a second angle relative to the third panel.
