Abstract
Card carrying mailing forms (10, 80) with a planar resilient body of paper (12, 82) having fold lines (14, 16 and 84, 86) equally dividing the body (12, 82) into a leading end section (18, 88), a middle section (20, 90) and a lagging end section (22, 92). In one embodiment of the carrier form (10) ears (66) are opened by bending the planar body (12) to receive cards held within a pair of corner pockets (38, 40) by a flap (50) cut from the middle section (20) of the body (12) which also is moved to an operative position by bending the body (12). In another embodiment of the carrier form (80), pockets (98, 100) are made from rectilinear cuts to enable opening of the pockets (98, 100) by means of a roller and the cards (30) are held in the pockets by folding the lagging end section (88) over the middle section (90) adjacent the edge (102) of the card (30).
