Abstract: Front and back panels have side seams that fix the panel side edges of the front panel to the panel side edges of the back panel and each extend a full vertical length of the respective panel side edges. A label formed from a separate piece of film covers one of the face panels between the side edges thereof, is disconnected from the one face panel between the panel side seams, has label side edges generally at the respective side panel edges, and secures the label to the one face panel. Respective secondary side seams are provided between the side edges of the label and the side edges of the one panel, and respective tear lines are formed in the label closely adjacent and generally parallel to each of the label side edges. There is printing on the label only between the tear lines.

Abstract: A bag has front and back face panels formed of a body film and each having two generally parallel and normally vertical side edges bridging ends of respective upper and lower edges, respective longitudinal side welds fixing the side edges of the front panel to the side edges of the back panel, a separate piece of label film different from the body film, covering a mid portion of one of the face panels between the respective longitudinal edges, and spaced downward from the upper edge of the one face panel and upward from the lower edge of the one face panel, and structure at the longitudinal edges holding the piece of label film on the one face panel without surface bonding of the piece of label film to the one face panel between the respective longitudinal edges.
