Abstract: There is disclosed a pressure sensitive label roll comprised of a composite label web having a carrier web and labels releasably adhered by pressure sensitive adhesive to the carrier web. The outer wrap of the label roll is adhesively secured to the inner wrap to bold the outer wrap in place until the label roll is ready to be used, and this adhesive holds the labels of the inner wrap to the carrier web of the outer wrap more weakly than the pressure sensitive adhesive holds the labels of the inner wrap to the carrier web of the inner wrap. This prevents labels from being delaminated from the inner wrap when the outer wrap is unwound by the user.

Abstract: This invention relates to tamper-proof labels useful for marking objects in a manner such that, if one were to attempt to transfer the label to another object, the label would be destroyed or defaced to such an extent that its transference would be noticeable.The label comprises a laminate comprising a transparent or translucent outer sheet having an information containing pattern printed on its inner surface, said printed film having a discontinuous coating of transparent plasticized organic polymeric material thereon, with said printed and coating surface having a coating of a color containing pressure sensitive adhesive film thereon. The plasticizer in said organic polymeric material being a non-reactive, migrating plasticizer, which is also a plasticizer for said pressure sensitive adhesive.
