Abstract
An auxiliary label device for attaching to an object, such as a container having a side wall, includes a label enclosure that includes a longitudinal slot therethrough, a bottom side, and a top side. A rotatable spool fixed within the label enclosure is fixed with a first end of a label that traverses the slot of the label enclosure. A spring connected between the label enclosure and the spool urges the spool to wind the label around the spool in a coiled configuration. A second opposing end of the label is attached to the container, and with the spool and label under tension of the spring to urge the label around the spool, the label enclosure is urged to contact the container. The label thereafter is unwound from the spool in an extended configuration for viewing when the label enclosure is manually grasped and pulled away from the container.
