Abstract
A three-dimensional label with an easy to identify vertical label face that is used to display a container and or content of the container. The label attaches to any part of a container to identify but not limited to the contents, name, brand, cause, purpose, person, season or medication. The primary purpose of the invention is to provide an easy to identify label for products that otherwise may be difficult to distinguish between, such as spices in a spice cabinet or medication in a medicine cabinet. The label can be formed to be the physical cap or lid to the container, and may include other elements such as a slide-in label or a straw for a drink container. The vertical label face could be affixed to the base of the label such that it can hinge up and down.
