Description

  The present invention relates to a concealed postcard that can reliably maintain the confidentiality of the content written in the postcard entry field. In particular, before the postcard sent by mail is delivered to the recipient, the information entered in the postcard is third. This is related to a concealment postcard that is easy to open by the recipient while preventing the person from seeing it.

  Conventionally, as a concealed postcard that prevents others from seeing the notification information, a postcard body piece of the same size and a concealment paper piece are joined so as to be foldable, and there is an entry field for entering predetermined items on the inner surface of the postcard body piece. There is known a concealing postcard having a configuration in which a re-peeling adhesive is applied to the inner surface of a concealing paper piece, and a separating paper is stuck on the surface (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  However, in the above concealment type postcard, for example, the customer brings back the concealment type postcard from a financial institution, fills in the entry fields printed on the inner side of the postcard body piece, and performs the sealing, then the concealment type postcard. Remove the release paper attached to the piece of paper, and attach the cover paper piece as a single postcard with the re-peeling adhesive applied to the cover paper piece to cover the entry field on the inner surface of the postcard body piece In case of posting, the re-peeling adhesive applied to the concealment paper piece has re-adhesive properties, so that a third party can peel off the concealment paper piece during the delivery of the postcard and see the written contents. When the concealment paper piece is adhered again after seeing the contents of entry, it is not known that it was seen by a third party, and thus there is a disadvantage that the confidentiality is not completely maintained.

Therefore, a postcard paper piece and a concealing paper piece of the same size are connected so as to be foldable via a crease line, and an entry field for entering a predetermined item is provided on the inner surface of the postcard paper piece. A perforation is formed at a position closer to the inside by a predetermined width from the edge, and a weak pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed on the inner surface of the masking paper piece to be peelably adhered to the region between the crease line and the perforation. From the configuration in which a strong pressure-sensitive adhesive layer adhered to the perforation is formed in a region between the edge opposite to the line of sight and the perforation, and a release paper is attached to cover the weak pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the strong pressure-sensitive adhesive layer A concealment postcard is proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 2). With the concealment postcard disclosed in Patent Document 2, the content described in the entry field can be concealed by concealing the concealment paper so as to cover the entry field of the postcard paper piece. There is no risk that the cover paper piece will peel off from the postcard paper piece even during postcard delivery and handling during delivery, and if a third party opens it, the opened trace will remain and be written in the entry field. The confidentiality of the contents can now be reliably maintained. However, the disclosed concealment postcard has no specific suggestion regarding the perforation for opening, and when the concealed postcard recipient opens the concealment postcard from the perforation, if the cover is opened vigorously, the uncut portion of the perforation There is a problem that the paper is peeled off and is difficult to open.
