How does a coat ticket work?
The system is as simple as it has been since 1920 — and that's precisely what makes it effective.
- 1
Guest hands in coat
The attendant tears off a number. Two identical halves, with perforation between.
- 2
Both halves separated
One half goes on the coat, the other is given to the guest — as proof.
- 3
Coat is hung up
On a coat rack, hanger or cloakroom rail — with the visible number on the outside.
- 4
Return on departure
The guest presents the number, the attendant matches both halves and returns the coat.
