Abstract
A dispenser package for a stack of strips of pressure-sensitive adhesive tape. Each strip is formed with a tab at one end thereof and the strips of tape are aligned in the stack. The package comprises a support member supporting the stack of strips throughout their length and a cover portion which is positioned above the stack of strips and joined to the support member at one end and the cover is provided with an edge portion at the other end extending transversely of the stack at a position adjacent the tabs. The cover is formed of a flexible material to bow between its ends as the top strip is separated from the stack to hold the strip nearly perpendicular to the stack as it is peeled from the stack.
