Claim 3

The label of claim 1 wherein the width of said cover sheet between said side edges is less than the width of said base sheet.

Claim 4

The label of claim 1 further comprising tapered end areas of said cover sheet side edge portions disposed adjacent said tab means.

Claim 5

Claim 6

A label comprising: a round base sheet having first and second surfaces, said first surface coated with adhesive and adapted for overlying adhesion to a product container; a folded, indicia-bearing strip overlying a central portion of said base sheet second surface having folded edges spaced inwardly from opposed portions of the circumference of said base sheet; and a cover sheet overlying said folded strip and having first and second spaced apart, generally parallel side edges and side edge portions extending between outwardly disposed ends thereof and beyond the folded edges of said folded strip and straddling said folded strip, the under surface of said cover sheet coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive, said side edge portions overlyingly, peelably adhered to said base sheet second surface, said cover sheet further having first and second spaced apart arcuate end edges extending between said ends of said side edges overlyingly coextensive with arc segments of the circumference of said base sheet and disposed outwardly of boundary lines extending between said side edge ends thereby forming two tab means by which said cover sheet may be grasped and peeled from said base sheet for access to said folded strip.

Claim 7

The label of claim 4 wherein the width of said cover sheet between said side edges is less than the diameter of said base sheet.

Claim 8

A label comprising: a base sheet having first and second surfaces; a cover sheet having first and second spaced apart, opposed side edges, and first and second spaced apart, opposed end edges extending between the outwardly disposed ends of said first and second side edges, side edge portions of said cover sheet adjacent said side edges being overlyingly, peelably adhered to said base sheet first surface, said side edge portions having tapered end areas; a folded strip disposed between said base sheet and said cover sheet straddled by said cover sheet side edge portions; at least one of said cover sheet end edges extending between and outwardly beyond the tapered end area of said first and second side edges so as to form a nonadhered tab means for grasping and peeling of said cover sheet from said base sheet to expose said folded strip.

Claim 9

A label comprising: a base sheet having first and second surfaces; a cover sheet having first and second spaced apart, opposed side edges, and first and second spaced apart, opposed end edges extending between the outwardly disposed ends of said first and second side edges, side edge portions of said cover sheet adjacent said side edges being overlyingly, peelably adhered to said base sheet first surface, said side edge portions having tapered end areas; a folded strip disposed between said base sheet and said cover sheet straddled by said cover sheet side edge portions; at least one of said cover sheet end edges extending between and outwardly beyond the tapered end area of said first and second side edges so as to form a nonadhered tab means for grasping and peeling of said cover sheet from said base sheet to expose said folded strip.

Claim 10

The label of claim 6 wherein both of said cover sheet first and second end edges extend outwardly beyond the ends of said cover sheet first and second side edges, thereby forming two of said tab means.

Claim 11

The label of claim 6 wherein said at least one cover sheet end edge is arcuate.

Claim 12

The label of claim 8 wherein said base sheet is substantially circular, both of said cover sheet end edges being arcuate and overlyingly coextensive with arc segments of the circumference of said base sheet.

Claim 13

The label of claim 9 wherein the width of said cover sheet between said side edges is less than the width of said base sheet.

Claim 14

A label comprising: a base sheet having first and second surfaces, said first surface coated with adhesive and adapted for overlying adhesion to a product container; a folded, indicia-bearing strip overlying a central portion of said base sheet second surface having folded edges spaced inwardly from opposed portions of the circumference of said base sheet; and a cover sheet overlying said folded strip and having first and second spaced apart, generally parallel side edges and side edge portions extending between outwardly disposed ends thereof and beyond the folded edges of said folded strip and straddling said folded strip, each side edge portion having at least one tapered end, the undersurface of said cover sheet coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive, said side edge portions overlyingly, peelably adhered to said base sheet second surface, said cove sheet further having first and second spaced apart end edges extending between said ends of said side edges, at least one of said end edges disposed outwardly of a boundary line extending between said tapered ends of said side edge end portions thereby forming a nonadhered tab means by which said cover sheet may be grasped and peeled from said base sheet for access to said folded strip, whereby peeling of the cover sheet from said base sheet is effected over a gradually widening area.

Claim 15

A label comprising: a base sheet having first and second surfaces, said first surface coated with adhesive and adapted for overlying adhesion to a product container; a folded, indicia-bearing strip overlying a central portion of said base sheet second surface having folded edges spaced inwardly from opposed portions of the circumference of said base sheet; and a cover sheet overlying said folded strip and having first and second spaced apart, generally parallel side edges and side edge portions extending between outwardly disposed ends thereof and beyond the folded edges of said folded strip and straddling said folded strip, each side edge portion having at least one tapered end, the undersurface of said cover sheet coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive, said side edge portions overlyingly, peelably adhered to said base sheet second surface, said cove sheet further having first and second spaced apart end edges extending between said ends of said side edges, at least one of said end edges disposed outwardly of a boundary line extending between said tapered ends of said side edge end portions thereby forming a nonadhered tab means by which said cover sheet may be grasped and peeled from said base sheet for access to said folded strip, whereby peeling of the cover sheet from said base sheet is effected over a gradually widening area.

Claim 16

The label of claim 11 both of said cover sheet end edges are disposed outwardly of boundary lines extending between said side edge ends thereby forming two tab means.

Claim 17

The label of claim 12 wherein said cover sheet end edges are arcuate.

Claim 18

The label of claim 13 wherein said base sheet is substantially circular, said cover sheet end edges being overlyingly coextensive with arc segments of the circumference of said base sheet.

Claim 19

The label of claim 14 wherein the width of said cover sheet between said side edges is less than the diameter of said base sheet.
