We have also received many recent tubes with illegible labels.  Not only
does it make it difficult to determine shipping lists, several tubes
have
had additional labels added because the addresses are also smudged.  For
many of the recent shipments, we are still missing one or more tubes,
presumably having gone astray because they are so unreadable that no
address
could be reconstructed. It looks like we will be submitting more claims
than
usual.  For us, this has been more than an isolated incident or two.

I was just wondering if anybody else has lately been receiving map tubes
with unreadable and smudged labels.

It makes it hard for me to see which shipping list the tubes belong to.

I am on the west coast, so the likelihood of the label getting damaged
is
greater than those nearer to the source.

Just wondering.
