I mostly use Lee Osckars myself, which are already labeled on the
sides, but have some Special 20's I like, a couple of Seydels and a
few other that need labels. My harps stand up vertically in my case,

works OK and is cheap, but it isn't as neat looking as I like, so
went for the labels. Once you apply them you put a coat of clear
fingernail polish on them and they seem to last a lot longer than the
paint, too. Theye're also easier to read in dim light.

aarrgh! It is just so unusually hot and humid today...I am sweating
