<p>A blow molded polyethylene terephthalate container (20) is disclosed as having a noncylindrical wall (28) to which at least one label (38) is secured with a textured surface provided by an in-mold labeling operation that prevents label shifting during the blow molding operation. The textured label surface includes isolated depressions (53) that are defined by mold projections (72) which define mold passages (74) through which a vacuum is drawn to provide the label securement. The label and wall depressions (53) of the container and the mold projections (72) that provide these depressions are preferably arranged in a repeating pattern at 45 degrees with respect to the vertical direction of the container.</p> |
