A label to be affixed to a container is disclosed. The label includes a longitudinal strip divided into two or more panels by one or more transverse fold lines. An end panel of the strip forms a front cover for the remaining panel or panels when the remaining panel or panels is or are folded behind the front cover panel. The front cover panel has a folded edge defined by the fold line between the front cover panel and the adjacent panel and a free outer edge which is opposite the folded edge and extends beyond the remaining panel or panels of the strip when folded. The extending part of the front cover panel has one or more holes, a support web for the longitudinal strip and a layer of pressure sensitive self-adhesive material which is adhered by the self-adhesive surface thereof over the front cover panel. The self-adhesive material extends beyond the folded edge thereby to adhere the front cover panel to the support web and covers the hole or holes in the front cover panel thereby to form one or more exposed portions of the self-adhesive material. Each exposed portion is in registry with a respective hole and can be adhered to the support web to secure the front cover panel in a folded condition over the remaining panel or panels and can be pulled away from the support web to unfold the front cover panel and give access to the remaining panel or panels. The invention also provides a method for producing these labels on a length of release backing material.
