ABSTRACT:
A mailer intermediate, and a combination postcard and negotiable instrument mailer, are provided which has the benefit of postcard postal rates, yet provides the confidentiality of a mailer. The intermediate is formed by a quadrate sheet of cellulose based stock with first and second parallel lines of weakness (e.g., perforations) extending substantially transverse to the side edges of the sheet and dividing the sheet into an outgoing address portion, a negotiable instrument portion, and a combination security and reply portion. When the sheet is folded about the first line of weakness to form a mailer, the mailer has postcard-sized dimensions (e.g., about 4.25".times.6") with the outgoing addressee indicia image on the outside face of the address portion and negotiable instrument indicia (including payee and MICR indicia) on the inside of the mailer, negotiable instrument portion. The outgoing address portion has a width of about 1.2-1.6 inches from an end edge of the mailer, and folded over intermediate portions are held together by first and second patterns of adhesive, such as spaced glue spots.
