Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved mailer and method of making same, wherein the front sheet of an envelope is provided with a window area whereby information is printed over the envelope with a non-carbonizing ribbon to reproduce information on a self-reproducing surface in the envelope with the information being visible only in the window area of the envelope.
  • Mailer envelopes are known wherein an envelope is provided with a front sheet having a carbon backing and wherein on the front of the envelope a particular area is coated with a material which will reproduce printed information when a special coated ribbon is used in a printer and applied against the coated front portion of the envelope.
  • the coated ribbon will not reproduce information on the non-coated areas of the front sheet of the envelope.
  • printed information will be transferred, by the carbon backing, to a sheet interposed between the front and back sheets forming the envelope and not be visible on the outside of the envelope.
  • a further feature of the present invention is to provide a novel method of producing a mailer form wherein information is printed on an envelope and reproduced on a self-reproducing surface inside the envelope with information being visible in a window area on the front sheet of the envelope and not visible in other areas.
  • the present invention provides a mailer form comprising an envelope having a front and back sheet secured together along marginal edges thereof.
  • the front sheet has a window area.
  • a self-reproducing surface is provided in the envelope and faces the window area whereby a printer having a non-carbonizing ribbon can print over the envelope front sheet to reproduce on the self-reproducing surface information which is visible in the window area and not visible in other areas of the envelope.
  • a method of making a mailer form comprising the steps of providing an envelope having a front and back sheet with the front sheet having a window area.
  • the envelope has a self-reproducing surface therein facing the window area.
  • the envelope is then fed through a printer for printing information on the front sheet through a non-carbonizing ribbon to reproduce on the self-reproducing surface information which is visible in the window area and not visible in the other areas of the envelope.
  • the mailer form comprises an envelope 11 formed by a front sheet 12 and a backing sheet 13 secured together along marginal edges thereof by glue strips 14 as is commonly known in the art.
  • the front sheet is provided with a window area 15 and a self-reproducing surface is provided in the envelope facing the window area.
  • the self-reproducing surface is constituted in Figure 1 by providing in the envelope one or more information sheets treated with a substance wherein the sheet 16 has a self-reproducing surface 16'.
  • This self-reproducing surface faces the window area 15 of the front sheet 12.
  • the window area 15 may be an open area or may be provided with a transparent film material 17 (see Figure 2).
  • a plurality of forms 10 are attached together in a side-by-side relationship by perforated lines 18 whereby each of the envelopes 11 is separable from one another.
  • a feed strip 19 is detachably secured along opposed end edges of the envelopes 11 whereby the envelopes can be fed through a high-speed printer.
  • the printer is provided with a non-carbonizing ribbon for imprinting information on the front sheet 12 of the envelope.
  • the printed information is reproduceable on the self-reproducing surface 16' on the information sheet 16 and visible in the window area 15. Infornr ation printed on other areas is not visible as it is concealed by the front sheet 12.
  • the envelope 11 is provided with a tear strip 21 along an end edge thereof.
  • a removable tab 22 is also provided along the inner perforated line 21' of the tear strip to facilitate access to the interior of the envelope 11.
  • the envelope is a standard-type envelope having a flap 23 along the marginal top edge 24 thereof to seal the open top edge of the envelope.
  • the information sheet 16 is also provided inside the envelope and the information imprinted on the envelope is only visible in the window area 15, as above described.
  • FIG. 3 there is shown a modified form of the type described in Figure 1 and as herein shown the backing sheet 13 of the form is treated with a self-reproducing material whereby the information imprinted over the front sheet 12 will reproduce on the inner surface of the backing sheet. Accordingly, there is no information sheet 16 provided within the envelope.
  • the envelope 12 As shown in Figure 3, is provided with opposed tear strips 25 along the longitudinal marginal edges thereof and a further tear strip 26 along one end edge thereof. The opposed end edge is provided with a peel-off glue along a glue portion 27 thereof. Perforations 25' and 26' permit detachment of the tear strips 25 and 26, respectively.
  • the front sheet 12 can be easily separated from the backing sheet 13 whereby the backing sheet constitutes the information carrying sheet.
  • the front sheet is also provided with one or more window areas 15 for the same purpose as hereinabove defined.
  • the peel-off glue area 27 may also be constituted by a tear strip having a perforated edge for the removal thereof.
