An adhesive label or sticky label is a small piece of paper designed to be affixed to any surface,[1] typically by the action of removing a layer of adhesive on the front or back of the label. The term adhesive refers to a sticky substance, while something that is self-adhesive implies that it will stick without wetting or the application of glue to the product.[2]
One of the most familiar types of adhesive labels is the postage stamp, which was developed in Britain in the 1840s[3] and became popular in the United States within the same decade. However, it was not until 1935, when R. Stanton Avery invented the machine to manufacture self-adhesive labels.[4] Over time Avery's invention stimulated the development of eighteen original patents and revolutionized the way that manufacturers and brands advertised information on their products.[5]
The machines Avery pioneered used a die-cutting process, allowing the paper to be cut into a repeated, specific shape, usually a rectangle or a square. In the 1960s, further innovations, increasing demand, and new kinds of adhesives were produced, and self-adhesive labels began to be manufactured on a large scale to a worldwide market.[1] In the 1970s self-adhesive labels and stickers became mainstream products and were popularized in the form of car decals, bumper stickers, and collectable items.[6]
