Old Fashioned Red and White Specimen Labels

An inquisitive FinderMaker wondered where I had found the red and white labels featured in the previous post, and although the source is no longer around, I am delighted to be able to offer some images and PDFs from which you can print your own sheets of labels. These are true labeling classics; try printing them out on sticker paper for inkjet printers, or print on the paper of your choosing and affix with a glue stick, or print them out on cardstock, punch a hole in the corner, and use as a hang tag! Their appeal stretches far beyond holiday use; enlist them in the identification of your various specimen collections (im assuming each of you has stacks of old cigar boxes stuffed with shells, buttons, bones, stones and bric a brac?), affix them to your journal with a date and "HANDS OFF" typed on, or stick them on old bottles and jars with stuff inside (Pinecones? Beach glass? Salt crystals from your trip to the Bonneville salt flats? Sand from White Sands National Monument?) to give your collection that special "science chic" appeal! Have fun! Happy Holidays!
