Abstract
A carrier web 10 has a plurality of leaflets 12 on its upper surface. Overlying each of the leaflets 12 is a web 21 which has a printable upper surface and adhesive on its rear surface for adhering to the leaflets 12. The web 21 includes strips 23 which extend beyond opposing edges of each leaflet 12 and which adhere directly to the carrier web 10. The transverse width of the strips 23 is less than the transverse width of the portion of the web 21 which overlies the leaflet 12. Shoulders 29 are thus provided in the web 21 at the junction of the strips 23 to the rest of the web 21. The shoulders 29 facilitate access to the leaflet beneath. Also as the upper surface of the web 21 is printable, users of the assemblies may apply their own information to the upper surface of the web such as bar code information or the price of the article to which the label/leaflet is applied.
