Please refer to your current NBS Classification (BlueBook) for labeling requirements
2011/2012 NBS Classification Book:
Labeling: Although not required unless
specified in the classification or by the award, labeling
aids judges and educates viewers.
Assortment classes 6- 0, 7- 0, 20- 0 and summary Sees. 16,
21, and 26 require labeling all buttons according to class
and mounting in numerical order. Each button shall be
labeled with only one class number whether or not it may
represent more than one class. Rebus buttons and pictorial
symbols (Sec. 22) require labeling, as well as awards
written for radiants (Sec.7).
Back marks may be labeled "back mark" or described
("Battersea 1998" for example). The buttons of Div. II
should be labeled whenever the name of the issuing
organization is not shown in the button design, even if the
logo or insignia is commonly recognized. Labels should be
typed or printed legibly and placed on the front of the
tray.
Inaccurate labeling when labeling is required can result in
the disqualification of the tray at the discretion of the
judges with the approval of the Chairperson of judges.
Inaccurate labeling when labeling is not a requirement will
not disqualify the tray but will detract from it. (End of
the 2009 NBS)
Also, you must label if the award is written to include
labeling even if labeling is not required for that section. |
