Abstract
A label useful in delivering articles via many different mailing services, including Priority Mail, Express Mail and International Express Mail, and a method for delivering an article are provided. The label is adapted to indicate thereon mailing and address information relating to the mailing, shipping or handling of packages or articles. The label is constructed as a laminate having a primary layer and a secondary layer wherein each layer has a surface confronting and adjoined to the other layer. Mailing information is included on a front side and may also include spaces for receiving additional mailing information thereon. The label has a tear line provided on the primary label which defines a removable receipt flap on the label. The receipt flap contains a portion of the mailing label and is adapted to receive additional information. An area is exposed beneath the receipt flap on the secondary layer when the receipt flap is removed from the primary layer along the tear line. The label is adapted as a blank so that variable information may be printed thereupon, relating to delivery of an article via the different mailing services, including Priority Mail, Express Mail and International Express Mail.
