Abstract
Abstract A sleeve marker assembly (10, 50) of sleeve markers (11, 53) formed by a base web (12) and top web (13) joined together by transverse seals (16). The base web and top web are of the same width, and two or more rows of spaced longitudinal slits (18, 21, 51 & 52) extend through both webs to define open ends of the sleeve markers. The sleeve markers are manually detachable from the assembly for application to an article.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
209 words
A sleeve marker assembly comprising, in combination: (1) a base web and top web superposed upon one another, both webs being of equal width and having longitudinal axes arranged parallel to each other; (2) a plurality of spaced transverse seals joining the base web and the top web together at preselected intervals, the transverse seals being arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of the base web and top web; (3) a first row of spaced longitudinal slits defined in a first marginal edge portion of the assembly, each said slit extending through the base web and top web and separated from one another by connecting lands comprising portions of the transverse seals; (4) a second row of spaced longitudinal slits defined in a second marginal edge portion of the assembly opposite from the first marginal edge portion and arranged parallel to the first row of spaced longitudinal slits, each said slit extending through the base web and top web and separated from one another by connecting lands comprising portions of the transverse seals; (5) each individual sleeve marker being manually detachable from the assembly and having opposed closed edge portions defined by portions of an adjacent pair of transverse seals and opposed open ends defined by said longitudinal slits.
