ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A labeling apparatus applies transfer labels to the curved peripheral surface of articles, such as bottles and other containers. An article support po- sitions the article at a label transfer station within the apparatus with the curved peripheral surface of the article exposed and the article freely rotatable about its longitudinal axis. A labeling carriage, mounted for reciprocating movement back and forth relative to the transfer station, moves a web of transfer labels relative to the supported article, such that the label web and the curved surface of the article are in tangential rolling contact. A heating plate, mounted on the carriage ad- jacent that portion of the web in contact with the article, releases one label from the web for transfer onto the curved surface of the article.
