Abstract
A self-adhesive label is provided for displaying useful information about an object to which the label is affixed. The label is formed with a face layer constructed out of heavy paper, such as cardstock, and having a first planar surface which is suitable to receive printed indicia thereon. An adhesive layer coats a second planar surface of the face layer and includes a pocket-forming window therein, which is in communication with a slot in the face layer, and adhesively affixes the face layer to the object. The pocket-forming window defines an item receiving pocket between the object and the face layer, wherein the item-receiving pocket is accessible through the slot, for example, to removably insert a card therein. A sheet of labels is also provided having two or more labels thereon, wherein each of the two or more labels are removable from the sheet for individual use thereof.
