Undersurface imprintable label construction

Claim 1

An undersurface imprintable label construction comprising: a. a self-supporting film at least a portion of which is translucent, the film having a top surface and a bottom surface; b. a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer covering only a portion of the bottom surface of the self-supporting film and thereby forming at least one one non-adhesive zone on the film bottom surface coincident with at least a portion of the translucent portion of the film to provide a non-adhesive indicia-receiving window area on the film, c. a release liner below the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the self-supporting film to act as a carrier for the self-supporting film, the release liner having a release layer in contact with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the film for allowing the self-supporting film to be readily released from contact with the release liner, and including at least one open window area aligned with the non-adhesive indicia-receiving window area on the film, d. an indicia transferring layer beneath the release liner and facing the open window area of the release liner and aligned window area of the film, the indicia-transferring layer being capable of transferring visual indicia to a surface in contact with it in response to pressure being applied to the indicia-transferring layer, said indicia transferring layer being retained with the release liner upon release of the self-supporting film and pressure-sensitive adhesive layer from the release layer, and e. an indicia-receptive layer on the indicia-receiving window area of the film bottom surface, the indicia-receiving layer allowing indicia to be transferred from the indicia-transferring layer to the bottom surface of the film in the translucent indicia-receiving area thereof in response to the pressure being applied to the indicia-receiving area of the film top surface.
