Dear All,

Some of you may recollect that I started compiling information on which
(printed) labels exist in collections and how they fare condition-wise. The
aim is to add this info to the SPNHC Wikipage on labels in the form of a
rather simple, easy to review table.

Thank you to all those who already sent the information from "their"
collections. Those who haven't yet done so are invited to send me:

Printer model
Ink (toner) type / model
Substrate (paper, plastic... + manufacturer)
Conditions observations - kept well, faded, "alphabet soup", etc.
Comments - expensive / ease of use / other

If acceptable, I'd like to add your name, position, institute name.

Please be aware that *failed labels are particularly interesting *and
important! We want to know what did not work for you, as well as what did!

Thank you,

Gali
