Abstract
Portable holders for supporting lottery tickets and the scratching off of coatings therefrom. In some embodiments, the holders may include substantially planar surfaces having top edges, bottom edges, left side edges, and right side edges, the top edges being opposite to the bottom edges, and the left side edges being parallel and opposite to the right side edges; at least one slot and/or notch disposed along the surfaces and configured to hold lottery tickets on the surfaces; and trays attached to the bottom edges of the surfaces and configured to collect particulates there within.

A portable lottery ticket holder, comprising:
- a substantially planar surface having a perimeter including a top edge, a bottom edge, a left side edge, and a right side edge, the top edge being opposite to the bottom edge, and the left side edge being opposite to the right side edge;
- at least one slot disposed along the planar surface and configured to hold a lottery ticket on the surface;
- wherein the at least one slot includes a first slot disposed along the left side edge and a second slot disposed along the right side edge of the planar surface;
- a high-friction material disposed along at least a portion of the slot and configured to reduce slippage of the lottery ticket within the slot;
- and
- an open-ended tray that is substantially v-shaped in cross-section and attached to the bottom edge of the planar surface, the open-ended tray being configured to collect particulates disposed within the open-ended tray.
A lottery ticket holder adapted for enabling scratching of a lottery ticket, comprising:
- a substantially flat surface having a perimeter including a top edge, a bottom edge, a left side edge, and a right side edge, the top edge being opposite to the bottom edge, and the left side edge being opposite to the right side edge;
- at least one notch disposed on the flat surface and configured to hold a lottery ticket ticket on the surface;
- wherein the at least one notch includes a first notch disposed near the left side edge and a second notch disposed near the right side edge;
- a high-friction coating disposed along at least a portion of the notch and configured to reduce slippage of the lottery ticket within the notch;
- and
- a substantially v-shaped tray disposed along the bottom edge of the flat surface and configured to collect particulates disposed within the tray.
