Repositional staggered edge posting sheetlets

A multi-layer sheet of individual uniformly shaped staggered edge individual posting sheetlets loosely held together so as to maintain the integrity of the multi-layer sheet yet allow each individual posting sheetlet thereof to be readily removed therefrom to adhere to a substrate for temporarily posting an item thereon, said multi-layer sheet comprising:

• (a) a rectangular-shaped base release sheet with four peripheral edges;
• (b) at least six individual posting sheetlets in flat sheet form and arranged in a side-by-side relationship to create at least two adjoining columns of said posting sheetlets and positioned over said base release sheet, further each of the posting sheetlets in each of the columns is adjacent another posting sheetlet in the same column, each said individual posting sheetlet having a peripheral grasping edge and ranging from about one-fourth inch to about one and one-half inch in width and about one inch to about three inches in length and having a paper substrate with a front face and a back face with from about 0.4 mil to about 1 mil of a pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive in the form of microspheres partially covering each said face in approximate aligned areas of the respective faces such that an adhesive-free area is formed and wherein the peripheral grasping edge of each said posting sheetlet is offset from one of the peripheral edges of the underlying base release sheet;
• and
• (c) a removable cover sheet having a non-stick surface with said cover sheet scored to form at least six cover panels and positioned over said individual posting sheetlets, wherein each of said scored cover panels overlies an individual posting sheetlet with a grasping edge offset from the peripheral grasping edge of the individual posting sheetlet,
• whereby each individual posting sheetlet can be readily grasped for removal from the multi-layer sheet and adhered to the substrate.

A multi-layer sheet that includes a base release sheet with a removable cover sheet of cover panels and a full sheet therebetween of a plurality of readily removable individual posting sheetlets with commonly positioned staggered edges, said multi-layer sheet comprising:

• (a) a base release sheet for receiving and releasably holding a plurality of posting sheetlets in flat sheet form, the base release sheet including a release face having a surface that allows the releasable attachment thereto of pressure-sensitive-adhesive-bearing individual posting sheetlets;
• (b) a plurality of individual posting sheetlets in flat sheet form arranged in a side-by-side relationship to create at least two adjacent columns of said posting sheetlets and further each of the posting sheetlets in each of the columns is adjacent another posting sheetlet in the same column and wherein the individual posting sheetlets in the flat sheet form are positioned between and in contacting relationship with each of the release faces of the base sheet and the cover sheet, each individual posting sheetlet defined by a paper substrate having a first layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive firmly adhered to and covering a portion of the front face of the paper substrate, and a second layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive firmly adhered to and covering a portion of the back face of the paper substrate, wherein each of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers extends continuously from a top edge of the paper substrate on each of the front and back faces to a position between the top edge and a peripheral edge of the paper substrate so that each of the front and back faces of the paper substrate includes a free area that is devoid of adhesive at the bottom edge to facilitate gripping of an individual posting sheetlet for removal from the base release sheet, the adhesive layers each extending continuously between the side edges of the posting sheetlet to define on each face of the posting sheetlet a first, adhesive-bearing area and a second, adhesive-free area, and wherein the removable cover sheet and the base release sheet each covering a respective face of each of the posting sheetlets to completely cover each of the adhesive-bearing areas of each of the posting sheetlets;
• and
• (c) a removable cover sheet spaced from and in overlying relationship with the base sheet for covering pressure-sensitive-adhesive-bearing surfaces of the plurality of posting sheetlets, said removable cover sheet scored to form individual side-by-side cover panels wherein each of the cover panels overlies an individual posting sheetlet, the removable cover sheet including a release face having a surface that allows releasable attachment thereto of the pressure-sensitive-adhesive-bearing individual posting sheetlets, and further the release face of the cover sheet facing the release face of the base sheet, wherein the peripheral edge of each individual posting sheetlet is offset from an underlying edge of the base release sheet and is further offset from an overlying edge of the removable cover sheet,
• whereby one of said individual posting sheetlet is removed from the multi-layer sheet by removing a covering cover panel, grasping the adhesive-free area of the posting sheetlet and lifting it away from the underlying base release sheet.
