Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 29
Claim 1
Independent Claim 48 words
A rub-off advertising sampler, comprising: a) a piece having printed advertising material, b) a rub-off sample on the piece, c) the printed advertising referring to the rub-off sample, and d) the rub-off sample is a relatively thick transfer layer which is readily removable by application of slight pressure.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 48 words
A rub-off advertising sampler, comprising: a) a piece having printed advertising material, b) a rub-off sample on the piece, c) the printed advertising referring to the rub-off sample, and d) the rub-off sample is a relatively thick transfer layer which is readily removable by application of slight pressure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
