I simply use Sharpie markers.  You can get them in colors black or silver.
I lable the left end with as a straight harp and the right end as cross harp
(i.e. A - E).  I also label the back, i.e. A/E.  That way I have a couple of
visual references to work from.  Lee Oskars are labeled nicely already.   I
store them in a Mississppi Sax case most times but I also have an aluminum
stage case as well.

I fear the upside down harp solo - that's why I go with the yellow label
from the original box, placed on the top cover on the upper right. If I see
the label, of course I know the orientation. The only time that ever happens
to me is if I am flippin the harp or twirling it to show off and don't have
to grab a new key. Just desserts I suppose.

Also, I think it really depends all on how you store your harps while
performing. I do not use a case. (yet) I use a leather cartridge belt that
keeps two harps in each of the five pockets. I don't play the chrom, (yet)
so this works fine for me. 

The only other instrument I could think of having that happen on would be
the tamborine. Nobody would notice that though.
