2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an envelope-shaped mail package capable of mailing photographs and the like has been known. A publicly known mail package includes a bag-shaped portion having a window hole on the back side, and a paper seal piece that is continuously provided on the open side of the bag-shaped portion and is folded back and bonded to the back side of the bag-shaped portion. Known types are known. This mail package can be viewed by the recipient without opening the photograph or the like to be stored through the window when the paper seal piece is opened.

Further, the above-mentioned mail package can be used as a leg piece for standing up by folding the paper seal piece after opening it to the opposite side, and in this case, it can also be used as a photo stand. Has been done.

[0004]

However, in consideration of the general unsealed state of mail packages such as envelopes, it is almost the case that one end of the package is cut with scissors to open the scissors. After the opening by the method described above, there is a disadvantage that it is difficult to view the photograph through the originally intended window and to use it as a photographic stand thereafter.

Further, since a fixed installation space is required when assembled as a photo stand, it is necessary to fold a piece of paper seal in a plane to file a specific storage box as an album. Moreover, after storing in the storage box, it is not easy to search in which position the desired photo is stored, and therefore,
Conventional mail packages also have the disadvantage that they are not suitable for organizing and storing after they are received.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention was devised by focusing on the inconvenience of the conventional example, and the purpose thereof is to make it easy to understand the opening method from the appearance and to always open the opening method in a fixed manner. It is to provide an e-mail package that can be urged and have a state suitable for organizing and storing after opening.

[0007]

To achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a plurality of pieces are bent at a predetermined position and a bag-like portion whose one side is an open portion is connected to the open portion. In a mail package provided with a foldable paper seal piece in the bag-shaped portion, a window hole is provided on the back side of the bag-shaped portion, while the window hole can be covered with the paper seal piece, and within the area of the paper seal piece. The perforation is formed, and the window hole is provided so as to be exposed by using a portion surrounded by the perforation as a cutout portion.

In the mail package, it is preferable that an index piece is provided on the outer edge portion of the bag-shaped portion so that the index piece can be positioned, and a message description field is provided on the inner surface side of the cutout portion.

[0009]

The sheet pieces such as photographs are stored in the bag-shaped portion of the mail package. This storage is performed toward a position where the printed surface of a photograph or the like can be directly seen through the window hole. The sealing of the package is performed by adhering the sealing paper piece to the back side of the bag-shaped portion with an appropriate adhesive, and the address can be displayed on the front surface of the bag-shaped portion and mailed.

The recipient can easily cut the cut portion along the perforations. At this time, since the cut-out portion is clear due to the presence of the perforations, it is possible to avoid the direct cutting of the package edge by scissors or the like. By cutting off the cutout portion, the messages written on the inner surface side of the cutout portion can be sequentially read, while the photograph covered by the cutout portion can be exposed through the window hole. Also, after writing the prescribed items on the index piece located on the outer edge of the bag-shaped portion,
If you store the mail package in the storage box, you can more easily organize, store, search, etc. later.
