Abstract
A form having a wristband and, optionally, detachable labels, includes a printable face ply and a liner ply. The printable face ply has an upper surface and a lower surface, and a pressure sensitive adhesive on at least a portion of the lower surface. The face ply may include first and second adjacent portions, with the first portion of the face ply die cut to form a detachable wristband having first and second ends and an upper and a lower surface, with pressure sensitive adhesive on the lower surface of the detachable wristband adjacent the first and second ends, and with the second portion of the face ply die cut to form the series of detachable labels. The first portion of the face ply is also die cut to form an extender band having first and second ends and an upper and a lower surface, with pressure sensitive adhesive on the lower surface of the extender band adjacent the first and second ends. One of the extender band and the wristband defines an opening through which one of the first and second ends of the other of the extender band and the wristband can extend. As a result, the wristband and the extender band can be secured together by adhesive at their respective overlapping ends to increase effectively the length of the wristband. Variations in construction include providing adhesive at fewer than all of the wristband and extender band ends, and only having a single portion face ply.
