Claim:
A dispenser package comprising: a plurality of stacks of flexible sheets, the sheets of each stack comprising a layer of material having opposite top and bottom major side surfaces and first and second opposite ends, each sheet having a coating of pressure sensitive adhesive on a second end portion of one of the side surfaces adjacent the second end while being free of adhesive on both of the side surfaces on a first end portion thereof adjacent the first end, the sheets being releasably adhered to each other by adhesion of the coatings of pressure sensitive adhesive to form the stack with adjacent ends of the sheets aligned and with the first and second ends of successive sheets in the stack being adjacent; a carrier member supporting the plurality of stacks of flexible sheets, wherein a lowermost sheet of each of the plurality of stacks is adhered to the carrier member to restrict movement of each stack relative to the carrier member, the carrier member having transverse side edges substantially parallel to the first and second ends of the sheets; and an enclosure comprising walls defining a chamber in which the carrier member and stacks of sheets thereon are positioned, the walls comprising: a top wall defining a top side of the chamber, the top wall having a portion defining a generally central transverse slot substantially parallel to the first and second ends of the sheets, the top wall positioned adjacent an uppermost sheet of each of the plurality of stacks with the first end of the uppermost sheet of each stack projecting through the slot; a bottom wall defining a bottom side of the chamber; and transverse side walls substantially parallel to the first and second ends of the sheets and extending between the top wall and the bottom wall; wherein the transverse side walls of the enclosure are spaced from the transverse side edges of the carrier member and the first and second ends of the sheets to afford end-to-end movement of the carrier member and stacks of sheets thereon within the chamber.
