A container has attached to its surface information fields containing information about the container's contents. A shell partially covered with an additional set of information fields and including a window is movably attached to the container so that when the shell is moved with respect to the container, the window reveals at least one of the information fields attached to the container surface. A method for manufacturing comprises the steps of affixing a first set of information fields to a container, defining a transparent window in a shell, and then disposing the shell around the container so that, in response to movement of the shell, the window reveals a variable subset of the information fields.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] An apparatus, for increasing an effective information carrying surface area, comprising:a container having a top portion, a bottom portion, a longitudinal axis extending therebetween and surface irregularity;a set of information fields arranged circumferentially about an outer surface of the container;an opening, disposed at the top portion of the container, to enable dispensing of contents of the container;a non-transparent heat shell comprising a heat shrinkable material heat shrunk onto the container, such that the shell is rotatable relative to the container about the longitudinal axis, the shell being adapted at an end thereof with an aperture to permit access to the opening;a window disposed in the shell which selectively displays at least one information field in response to rotation of the shell with respect to the container; andthe shell conforming to the surface irregularity, the surface irregularity being at least partially covered by an inner surface of the shell, whereby movement of the shell along the longitudinal axis is restricted.
