Such sign shall be not less than eight inches by eleven inches in size and shall be printed on a contrasting background and in a legible manner conveying the following warning:

"WARNING: These products contain alkyl nitrites ("Poppers"). Inhaling or swallowing alkyl nitrite may be harmful to your health. The use of alkyl nitrites may affect the immune system. Several studies have suggested that their use is associated with the development of Kaposi's sarcoma (an AIDS condition)."
