Abstract

A label assembly includes a label with a removable multi-ply insert attached thereto by at least one fastening strip. The label has an adhesive applied to one of its sides for attaching the label assembly to an article. In two embodiments, the label assembly has a pair of perforated fastening strips for removably coupling the multi-ply insert to the label, while the label remains attached to the article. In another embodiment, one edge of the top ply of the insert is secured to the label by a single fastening strip, while the other edge of the top ply of the insert extends outwardly from the remaining plies of the insert and is secured directly to the label. In yet another embodiment, a single large fastening strip overlies substantially the entire top ply of the insert, and extends outwardly from three of the peripheral edges of the insert to engage the label for peelably securing the insert to the label by a pressure-sensitive adhesive. These label assemblies are manufactured in a continuous, on-line manner to produce a large roll of label assemblies.
