An opaque, biaxially oriented label stock product of lustrous appearance is provided which comprises: (a) a facing layer which is a laminate of (i) a thermoplastic polymer matrix substrate layer having an upper surface and a lower surface, a pressure sensitive adhesive component incorporated within said substrate layer or applied as a coating to the lower surface thereof and a strata of voids located within said substrate layer; positioned at least substantially within at least a substantial number of said voids is at least one spherical void-initiating particle which is phase distinct and incompatible with the matrix material, the void space occupied by said particle being substantially less than the volume of said void, with one generally cross-sectional dimension of said particle at least approximating a corresponding cross-sectional dimension of said void; the population of voids in said substrate and the thickness of said substrate being such as to cause a degree of opacity of less than 70 percent light transmission; and (ii) a void-free thermoplastic skin layer adhering to the upper surface of said substrate layer, said skin layer being of a thickness such that the outer surface thereof substantially conceals the surface irregularities of said substrate layer; and, (b) a release layer in the form of a thermoplastic film having an upper surface and a lower surface and having a release agent component for the pressure sensitive adhesive component of label layer (a)(i) incorporated therein or applied as a coating to the upper surface thereof, the lower surface of substrate (a)(i) being peelably affixed to the upper surface of said release layer (b).
