Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 164 words
A label product comprising an elongated label stock web having a plurality of equally longitudinally spaced apart, transversely extending lines of perforation defining a string of connected form lengths, a release liner having a coating of release material on only one surface and being of a predetermined width, said label stock web having a width substantially greater than said predetermined width, uniform thickness pressure sensitive adhesive between said release liner one surface and said web, said release liner extending continuously over each of said form lengths, said release liner one surface having a longitudinally extending edge band free of release material whereby said web is permanently adhered to said release liner in said longitudinally extending edge band, and a perimetrically diecut label in said web in each form length spaced from said band and overlying said liner whereby said label is removed from said web and whereby said liner still remains attached to said web, said edge band being coextensive with said release liner.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 164 words
A label product comprising an elongated label stock web having a plurality of equally longitudinally spaced apart, transversely extending lines of perforation defining a string of connected form lengths, a release liner having a coating of release material on only one surface and being of a predetermined width, said label stock web having a width substantially greater than said predetermined width, uniform thickness pressure sensitive adhesive between said release liner one surface and said web, said release liner extending continuously over each of said form lengths, said release liner one surface having a longitudinally extending edge band free of release material whereby said web is permanently adhered to said release liner in said longitudinally extending edge band, and a perimetrically diecut label in said web in each form length spaced from said band and overlying said liner whereby said label is removed from said web and whereby said liner still remains attached to said web, said edge band being coextensive with said release liner.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
The structure of claim 1 in which each form length includes a plurality of longitudinally related labels.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
The structure of claim 1 in which each form length includes a single label extending generally over the form length.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 56 words
The structure of claim 1 in which said label has a pair of longitudinally extending sides, one of said sides being adjacent said band, said liner having a line hole equipped control punch margin adjacent the other of said label longitudinally extending sides, said web terminating short of the line holes in said control punch margin.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 52 words
The structure of claim 1 in which each label has rounded corners and a pair of transversely extending sides, a transversely extending side of one label being mutual with the transversely extending side of an adjacent label and said web presenting a cusp indentation adjacent the end of each transversely extending side.
