A label for a container which is at least partially translucent, an image bearing portion located on part of the label with the image bearing portion including an image which is in a visually incoherent form, and a viewing member located on another part of the label for rendering the image in a visually coherent form when the image is viewed through the viewing member. The image or message provided on said image bearing portion can be optically encoded so as not to be intelligible except when viewed through the viewing member, such as a decoding window. Encoding/decoding techniques which can be utilized include, but are not limited to, lenticular indicia and hologram indicia, both of which are decoded by using techniques "matched" to the encoding technique. The label may be integrally formed on, for example, a box-type container.
