ABSTRACT:
A return mailing unit is in the form of a free-standing newspaper advertising insert which includes two end panels and two intermediate panels between the end panels. The intermediate panels are at least partially connected to the end panels by a weakened fold line while the intermediate panels are connected to each other by a non-weakened fold line. One of the end panels is in the form of at least one envelope. The other end panel is divided into two sections with at least one of the sections being completely detachable at its weakened fold line and by a weakened line which divides that end panel in two so that the detachable section could be inserted into an envelope from the other end panel to serve as a return mailing unit. In a variation of the return mailing unit a magazine cover has reply card extensions at both the front and back covers. The reply card extensions are detachable from the covers so as to serve as a return mailing unit. In a third version the direct mail piece is in the form of a gate fold having a plurality of intermediate panels and two end panels. One of the end panels is an envelope and the other end panel is divided into a plurality of sections by a weakened fold line between each section so that a section can be detached and inserted in the envelope as a return mailing unit.
