Abstract:
In combination:a stack of contiguous stacked elements intended for individual use, said elements having sufficient engagement with adjacent elements in the stack to normally maintain the integrity of the stack when the stack is handled;a container having walls with surfaces including outer surfaces and including inner surfaces defining a cavity adapted to removably receive said stack of elements; anda layer of pressure sensitive adhesive firmly attached along one of said surfaces of said container, said adhesive being adapted to adhere sufficiently to an end one of said elements in said stack to separate at least a portion of said end one of said elements from the adjacent element in the stack when said end one of the elements in the stack is pressed against the layer of adhesive and the stack of elements is then moved away from the adhesive, said adhesive being adapted to afford separation of the end one of the elements from the layer of adhesive.
