Abstract
An identification tag for handwritten imprinting of information is disclosed. In such an application, a hole is provided for attachment to the identified item by a variety of conventional means. A transparent protective sheet is attached to the tag in the area of the hole by a pressure sensitive adhesive. The balance of the protective sheet is coated with the adhesive but isolated from the tag by a releasable backing. Following information imprinting, the backing is removed to allow the adhesive to completely attach the protective sheet to the tag. The imprinted tag may be temporarily attached to another object by an extension of the protective sheet, adhesive, and backing beyond an edge of the tag. Subsequent removal of the tag is accomplished by bending and tearing along perforations or scoring in the protective sheet at the edge of the tag. Various embodiments and applications of the tag are disclosed.
