Abstract
Linerless labels which have a non-quadrate configuration are formed by printing indicia on a first face of a web of label stock and coating the first face with a pressure sensitive adhesive release material, and coating a second face of the web with a pressure sensitive adhesive. A plurality of non-quadrate configuration labels are die-cut from the web, and the labels are taken up in an assembly form in which the labels are readily releasably connected to each other. The labels may be substantially circular in configuration, and connected together in a shingled configuration, a portion of the adhesive of one label overlapping a portion of the top surface of another label. Alternatively, the labels may be connected together with a matrix material having a plurality of paper ties connecting each label to the matrix material or another label.
