Abstract

A printed product label is composed of at least two sections, at least one of which is provided with the label indicia pertinent to the product. One of the label sections is provided with an adhesive of one given type capable of affixing such label section permanently to the product. A second section is separably connected to the first section and is also provided with said given type of adhesive, but such adhesive thereon is employed to removably secure the second section to the product. The second section is additionally provided with a second adhesive of the pressure sensitive type that is masked to render it inoperative while the second label section is secured to the product, but which can readily be made operative when the second section is separated from the product and the first label section to adhere the separated second section to a backing member. The label may have additional label sections which may bear label indicia pertinent to the product and which are separably connected to the first and second sections, and which on their reverse sides may be blank, or provided with said given type of adhesive, or provided with masked adhesive of the pressure sensitive type.
