I've just uploaded
ymir.claremont.edu:[anonymous.tex.inputs.plain-contrib]label.tex
which is a set of macros for printing labels on 3x11 label paper.
It was posted to comp.text.tex on 23 May 91 by the author, Tom
Rokicki.

The following is from the internal documentation:
%   Either:
%      \address 3
%
%   then enter three addresses, blank lines between them, or
%
%      \faddress foo.tex
%
%   where foo.tex contains a bunch of labels, with blank lines between them.
%
%   Make sure to use \done to exit, rather than \bye.
