ABSTRACT:
An identification card-carrier combination is produced in a simple yet effective manner so that first and second cards are disposed side-by-side but are not directly connected to each other though positively positioned with respect to each other on a top face of the carrier, and readily releasable from the carrier. The combination includes a paper substrate having first length and width dimensions and a top face, the first and second identification cards disposed side-by-side and immediately adjacent to each other (e.g. abutting each other) and having a predetermined position with respect to each other, but unconnected directly to each other (the identification cards collectively have second width and length dimensions much less than the first dimensions), and an adhesive substrate common to the cards affixing the cards to the substrate web top face to hold the cards to the substrate web during printing and mailing while allowing removal of the cards from the substrate without damage to the cards. The adhesive substrate typically is a piece of double face pressure sensitive adhesive tape having width and length dimensions substantially the same the combined length and width dimensions of the first and second side-by-side cards. The combination may be in continuous format with perforations separating each set of first and second ID cards, or a number (e.g. three) of sets of cards may be provided on the same standard size office paper sheet (e.g. 81/2.times.11 inches). Where the card sets are immediately consecutive (having a spacing of less than an inch) two different label applicators are used to apply the card sets, a first applicator applying the first and third sets and a second applicator applying the second set between the first and third sets.
