Abstract
A marker particularly adapted to fit onto the hook of a clothes hanger and bearing alpha numeric information on its periphery takes the form of a cylindrical ring defining a central traversing hole receiving the clothes hanger hook whose outer periphery bears the alpha numeric information. A radial slot extending over the entire longitudinal extend of the ring whose width is in excess of the width of the clothes hanger hook permits radial entry of the clothes hanger hook. A pair of barbs arranged respectively to the sides of the slots with pointed ends directed radially inwards towards the center of the marker with their pointed wedged ends confronting each other, permits the clothes hanger hook to be pushed through the slot by deflecting the barbs laterally. Locating lugs extending from the inner surface of the cylindrical ring wall towards the center of the marker unit center the ring relative to the hook. At least the barbs are formed of resilient material.
