Paper adhered to fossil vertebrates

I personally think paper labels (made with carbon-based ink on
archival paper, impregnated with Paraloid B-72 and pressed well onto
the surface) can be as long-lasting as the traditional B-72 sandwich
method, but my labels are only a few years old.

Are any of you using paper labels adhered onto your objects? If so,
can you comment on their longevity or any other opinions about them?
