A label (12) formed of a single thickness of paper for attachment to a cylindrical container (26) includes a peel out portion (10) incorporated therein. The peel out portion (10) is axially oriented and includes a bottom edge (32) and a wedge shaped top edge (36) which are continuously cut. The side edges (34) extending between the bottom and top edges (32, 36) include lower and upper portions (34a, 34c) which are continuously cut and include intermediate, perforated portions (34b). A perforated cut (38) extends across the top edge (36) to define a handle (40). The peel out portion (10) can be removed from the label (12) attached to the container (26) in a preferred form by pivoting the handle (40) about the perforated cut (38) and then by grasping and pulling the handle (40) in a direction generally parallel to the axis of the container (26) and the side edges (34) and toward the lower edge (16) of the label (12).
