Abstract: A removable label guest book assembly provides a record of guests attending an event and removable labels to facilitate subsequent communication with those who attended the event. The guest book assembly includes a plurality of pages coupled together forming a book. A plurality of removable labels is coupled to the pages. The labels each have a writing surface configured for being written on by a writing implement. A plurality of recording sheets is provided. Each label has an associated recording sheet positioned between the label and the page. Thus, the recording sheet transfers writing on the writing surface of the label onto the associated page.

Abstract: A multi-color multi-ply note pad includes a plurality of note sheets, each of which has a perforated tear line that divides the note sheet into a stub portion and an inscribing portion, a binding member that binds the stub portions of the note sheets in a stack, and a repositionable adhesive layer provided on each of the note sheets at the inscribing portion of each of the note sheets and disposed adjacent to the tear line. The stub portions of the note sheets remain intact in the stack through the binding member when the inscribing portions of middle ones of the note sheets are removed from the stack.

Abstract: A linerless label is provided, that can be easily imaged, printed, or hand written upon by the end user. The label consists of a single ply, dispensed usually in a roll form, or alternatively, in a stacked form. A label roll is formed from a web of ply. The face of the web is stripe coated with an adhesive repellant release coat. The back of the web of ply is stripe coated with adhesive. Upon winding the web of ply into a roll, the adhesive on the back of the web of ply overlies the adhesive repellant stripes on the face of the web therebelow. The regions of the face of the web of ply not striped with adhesive repellant form areas for user printing and handwriting. Further, any portion of the face of the web of ply may be press printed prior to the application of the adhesive repellant stripes. Likewise, a label stack includes a plurality of label sheets superposed one on top the other.

Abstract: A note pad includes a plurality of stacked self-stick transparent note sheets. Each of the note sheets includes a transparent plastic film coated with a transparent coating layer and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The coating layer is prepared from a mixture of a binder and at least one pigment. The weight ratio of the binder to the pigment ranges from 1:1 to 1:10. Each of the note sheets has an opacity of less than 45%.

Abstract: A unitary stack of paper sheets have individual paper sheets which are loosely bonded together in a manner whereby an individual paper sheet is easily removed and used as a base. Each paper sheet in the unitary stack has a pressure sensitive adhesive partially covering each face thereof in approximate aligned areas of the respective faces. A back face of the individual sheet is adhered to a substrate while a front face holds an item for posting. In use, an individual paper sheet is readily removed from the unitary stack, adhered on its back face to the substrate, and then an item posted on its front face.

Abstract: A description is given of a notepad comprising a stack of notes joined along a rear edge, for example by strips of pressure-sensitive adhesive, in the stack at least one first note, in which the running direction of the paper fibers extends parallel to the edge, and at least one second note, in which the running direction extends transversely to the edge, following successively one after the other. Furthermore, a process for producing such a notepad is specified.

Abstract: Disclosed is a composite note pad assembly which comprises two independent stacks of individual sheets, sandwiched together, wherein the resulting composite pad assembly has a fall writing surface on both the top and the bottom of the assembly. In this manner, unlike conventional pads, there is no bottom of the stack, and there is no exposed glue surface which would otherwise interfere with writing or marking the paper, or which would get covered with office dirt and grime. The two-part composite pad assembly is unique, because it has two exposed writing surfaces at all times. In a preferred embodiment, the papers used to make the two segments of the composite pad assembly are different, e.g., different color, different appearance, etc., allowing the user the option of having two choices of "note" from a single pad assembly.

Abstract: Composite sheet used as a component of a pad including a stack of like composite sheets and a pad comprising a plurality of like composite sheets. The sheets include at least one perforation line permitting separation of the sheet into at least two separate sheets, and a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive on the bottom surface of the sheet and covering at least a portion of the bottom surface of each separate sheet.

Abstract: A multi-part, partially pre-printed form useful as an airbill has address information printed thereon by a non-impact printer. The form includes top and bottom transparent plastic sheets affixed together by an adhesive having three panels defined by perforation cuts through the top sheet and die cuts through the bottom sheet. The adhesive facing side of one of the sheets is preprinted with information appearing on each panel. In addition, a background opaque color is printed over the information on two outer panels, leaving the center panel transparent. The information pre-printed on the opaque panels having is in a mirror image format relative to the information pre-printed on the transparent panel. The address is printed on the outward side of the bottom sheet such that the address printed on the transparent panel is a mirror image relative to the information on outer panels. A four part form is also disclosed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a composite note pad assembly which comprises two independent stacks of individual sheets, sandwiched together, wherein the resulting composite pad assembly has a full writing surface on both the top and the bottom of the assembly. In this manner, unlike conventional pads, there is no bottom of the stack, and there is no exposed glue surface which would otherwise interfere with writing or marking the paper, or which would get covered with office dirt and grime. The two-part composite pad assembly is unique, because it has two exposed writing surfaces at all times. In a preferred embodiment, the papers used to make the two segments of the composite pad assembly are different, e.g., different color, different appearance, etc., allowing the user the option of having two choices of "note" from a single pad assembly.

Abstract: A guest check business form will properly align with and be read by conventional guest check processing machines. The top part of a first, heaviest ply of the guest check has machine readable indicia (e.g. bar code) printed on it. Below the bar code second and third plies are attached to the first ply adjacent their top edges, with the bottom edges of all of the plies substantially in alignment. The adhesive attaching these plies is staggered so that at no point along the form is there adhesive more than one layer thick. The adhesive may be repositionable adhesive, or permanent adhesive. With permanent adhesive it is desirable to provide fine perforations in the second and third plies just below the adhesive attachment of them to the first ply. The first ply is preferably carbonless CF paper, the second ply carbonless CFB, and the third ply carbonless CB.
