10 × 1 in labels
Think of 10 × 1 in as a slim strip about 10 times as long as it is tall – 254 × 25 mm, or 10 square inches of artwork. We checked it against common containers: it works for a standard 1.25 in shelf-edge channel as well as a 1 in binder spine (1.25 × 10.5 in). Layout budget: about 5 lines of roughly 168 characters at 8 pt. Searching for 1x10? That is this label rotated; the price is identical.
