  • Patent number: 6439289
    Abstract: A personal postage stamp dispenser is provided for dispensing individual postage stamps of the pressure sensitive adhesively backed type from their release liner backing strips. The dispenser is particularly suited for use as an advertizing or promotional article and is provided in combination therewith. The dispenser can be economically produced so that it can be given away as a promotional item. In its preferred form, the dispenser is hand-sized and supported on wheels or rollers so that it can rest on the top surface of a desk or tabletop. As so mounted, it will be prominently located so that promotional or decorative material on its cover is conspicuously displayed and receives high exposure. The dispenser operates by moving it by hand across the supporting surface of the desk or tabletop. Linkage connected to and driven by the wheels or supporting rollers feed the backing strip around a peeling edge which peels the stamps individually out of the housing of the dispenser into the free hand of the user.
