Abstract

Abstract A multi-ply form with labels is provided, including first and second webs secured one to the other with repositionable adhesive. A plurality of different types of labels are permanently secured to the second web. At least one label of the second web registers with a die-cut portion in the second web and both the one label and die-cut portion register with a die-cut section of the first web. When the webs are separated, the die-cut section is adhered to the second web, enabling removal of the one label therefrom in a manner to provide securement to a surface using either repositionable adhesive or permanent adhesive. Additional holding power may be provided when using the repositionable adhesive by providing a further die-cut segment within the die-cut section of the first web whereby the area of application of the adhesive may be large or small, depending upon whether the die-cut section is removed or not.
