Much has been learned as a result of your comments, guys.
1) The extra bar code label is affixed by USPS on some books. Part of their internal procedure.
2) The glue process on the SWAT labels is unacceptable and will be changed.
3) In the past two issues, the Print Order did not match what USPS billed us for....in each case, they sent out 46 less issues than labels created. Printer is looking into this, as their count to USPS matched ours.
4) Periodicals slow-downs are being reported to our Subscription House now from a number of their clients....finding the answer in the USPS bureaucracy should be an adventure. Three and four week delays are becoming commonplace.
5) Certain zips in the Gulf Region appear to have failed to lift the Periodicals Holds placed during Katrina. Unknown at this time if that is only for deliveries to their zips or for all periodicals traversing their offices.
