  • Linerless pressure sensitive coil of stamps having primer layer
    Patent number: 6797350
    Abstract: A coil of stamps is formed from a plurality of self-adhesive stamps detachably connected to each other end-to-end to form a continuous strip. Because the stamps include a primer layer, it is practicable to wind the strip about itself in spiral-like fashion. The strip also includes a portion adjacent to the inner end of the strip having a piece of liner material disposed thereon, and a portion having no liner material thereon, whereby the portion having no liner material thereon allows the strip to be wound directly onto itself. Preferably, the strip of stamps also includes a portion adjacent to the outer end of the strip having a piece of liner material disposed thereon in order to facilitate removal of the first stamp or group of stamps from the strip.
