Abstract
The tamper indicating package comprising a container having a neck, a closure interengaged with the container, and a tamper indicating device comprising a plurality of radially extending legs adapted to extend radially outwardly and axially about the closure. The legs are joined to one another at their inner ends and an integral annular band joins the other ends of the legs. The band extends beneath the flange of the container when the device is applied over the closure on the container, and the legs are made of a material such that the band will snap and/or shrink radially inwardly after application of the device to a position beneath the flange of the container thereby providing a tamper indicating device.
