Abstract
This need is met by the present invention wherein an improved shipment form is provided comprising a partially releasable liner ply, a peel-out package label portion, and a peel-out signature tab. In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, a shipment form is provided comprising a face sheet, a liner ply, and an adhesive interposed between the face sheet and the liner ply. The face sheet includes printed indicia for indicating an attempted delivery. The adhesive includes a laminating adhesive portion and a reusable adhesive portion. The liner ply defines a releasable liner ply portion adjoining a laminated liner ply portion. The releasable liner ply portion is configured to releasably adhere to the reusable adhesive portion while remaining adjoined to the laminated liner ply portion. The reusable adhesive portion and the releasable liner ply portion are configured such that the reusable adhesive portion retains its properties of adhesion following release of the releasable liner ply portion therefrom. The laminated liner ply portion is configured to adhere to the laminating adhesive portion with an adhesion strength substantially greater than an adhesion strength of the releasable liner ply portion to the reusable adhesive portion.
