Abstract
A label dispensing sheet includes a backing sheet having a layer of a pressure sensitive adhesive releasing material on one face and having a weakened line across its width, a row of adhesive labels releasably disposed on the backing sheet overlying the weakened line, and a release strip releasably disposed on the backing overlying the weakened line. The release strip has a weakened line at a position offset from the weakened line in the backing. This permits a user to grasp and pull away the release strip, exposing the ends of the labels for easy removal. The labels may, for example, be thin, plastic index tabs for labelling book pages.
