Abstract

A mailer type business form, and intermediate, are constructed from a single sheet of paper having four virtually identically sized panels, the sheet folded about an intermediate fold line, and then two other fold lines, to form a four ply mailer. First and fourth panels of the intermediate define the third and fourth plies of the mailer, and provide a return envelope sealed along three edges and open at the fourth, with a flap provided with a rewettable adhesive strip at the open edge. The second and third panels are held together by longitudinal strips of adhesive adjacent the longitudinal edges of those panels, with perforations provided in the second and third panels (but not the first and fourth panels) to allow removal of the connecting adhesive. The fold lines connecting the first and second panels and third and fourth panels are preferably perforations, and a longitudinal perforation is provided in the second panel to form the statement and reminder portions. All variable printing on the intermediate is provided on the second face of the sheet (which includes the outgoing address in the third panel, and the reply address in the first panel) so that the mailer may be constructed by simplex imaging.
