Abstract A continuous business form including an elongated ply of label stock having one side coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive and of a desired width. An elongated ply of release liner stock of the same width is engaged with the adhesive in such a way that the plies are laterally offset. Consequently, a narrow longitudinal strip of adhesive unengaged with the release liner exists on the label stock ply. An elongated ply of record or message bearing stock is adhered to such edge of the label stock at the narrow longitudinal strip of adhesive.
