We are grateful to Leen Ochelen and Guido Vanderhulst for having introduced us to the problem, as well as to Abraham Neyman, Sir Alan Peacock, Dov Samet and Yair Tauman for many helpful discussions. We are also grateful to three referees and to the editor of this journal for their very useful comments and suggestions. Research was partly supported by a Research in Brussels grant from the Brussels Capital Region and by the Conseil Brux-ellois des Musées.

N2 - Museum passes which give visitors access to several museums, are becoming more and more frequent. One of the problems encountered is the sharing of the proceeds. We recommend a fair and easily implementable sharing rule that takes into account the relative contribution of each individual museum to the joint pass program. This rule is based on theoretical arguments drawn from the field of game theory. We also show that other commonly used rules may lead to counterintuitive and inconsistent results, or provide bad incentives.
