Abstract: A machine for dispensing labels and the like from a backing sheet to which the labels are removably adhered, having side plates with guide rollers extending therebetween for directing the backing sheet through a discharge passage. The end of said discharge passage is provided with a forward leading edge about which the backing sheet is downwardly and rearwardly directed for withdrawing or parting of the sheet from the applied labels. A normally closed microswitch is presented in the path of at least one of such labels for switch opening engagement therewith when such label has projected a preselected distance beyond such leading edge by reason of the parting. A prime mover is in circuit with said switch and is de-energized upon opening of the latter to permit the operator an interval within which to complete the removal of the labels from the sheet, upon which event the switch is restored to closed state and resumption of the backing sheet travel through the machine is effected.
