- 1 Claim This invention relates to a combination letter,
An object of this invention is to provide a combination letter, bill, receipt and envelope made from a single sheet of paper, which may be sent through the mails, and is provided with ing a folded sheet which may be opened up ex- ,ing away the scored border edge portions leavposing a letter addressed to the addressee to-' gether with a bill and receipt, means being provided to permit the letter, bill and receipt to be separated for separate filing and to permit return of the receipt. v
Still another object of this invention is to provide a neat and simple combination letter, bill, receipt and envelope of the character described which shall be relatively inexpensive to manufacture, easy to use and practical'and eflicient to a high degree.
Other objects of-this.invention will in part be obvious and in part hereinafter pointed out.
The inventionaccordingly consists in the features of construction, combinations of elements, and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and of which the scope of application will be indicated in the following claim.
In the accompanying drawing, in which. is shown one of the various possible'illustrative embodiments of this invention:
Fig. l is a top plan view of the combination letter, bill and receipt embodying the invention before sealing;
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of the sealed article and showing an edged portion torn away, in
' dotted lines;
- two sections 26 and 21.
Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken on line wardly of the edges I2 are parallel lines of scoring I4, and inwardly of the end edges I3 are parallel lines of scoring I5. Between of 'scoring II and I5 and the edges I2 and I3 of sheet II is a rectangular border portion. The lower half I6 ofv the border portion is provided with adhesive vand the upper half ll of the border portion does not have adhesive, but when w the sheet II is folded about its longitudinal midsection the border portion Il may be sealed tothe border portion I6 by moistening the latter. The parallel lines of scoring I6 are inter-connected by a scored line 20 parallel to and disposed midway between the scored lines I4. Sheet II may be folded about said scored line I6.
The scored line 20 is connected to the lower scored line Il by a scored line 2| parallel to the scored lines I5 and closer to the right edge of the sheet II than to the left edge and dividing the lower half of the sheet into sections 22 and23. On section 22 there may be printed a bill and on section 23 there may be printed a receipt.
The upper half of the sheet II is divided by a printed line 25 somewhat closer and parallel to the left scored line I5 than to the right, into On section ZI'there may be printed a letter head leaving space for typing or writing a letter. Section 26 is formed with a horizontal cut-out or window opening 28 parallel to the scored line 20. Covering the window opening is a sheet 30 of transparent material pasted to the upper surface of sheet II. On section 22 is a printed outline 3| simliar to the window 28. The window opening 28 and the outline 2| are symmetrically arranged with respect to the scored line 20.
It will now be understood that after the items have been typed on the bill, and the letter written and the receipt filled in where necessary, the sheet I! may be folded about the scored line 20 and the border portions I'I sealed to the border portions I6. The sealing produces an envelope which may be mailed. The name and address of the addressee typed within the outline 3| may be seen through the window opening 28.
, When the letter is received the border edges may be torn away along the scored lines I4 and I5, the recipient of the letter may then read the letter in section 21, and will also have the bill of section 22 and receipt of section 23. The receipt and the bill may be torn away from the letter by reason of the scored lines 20 and 2|.
It will now be understood that the article I0 is a combination letter, bill and receipt and may furthermore be mailed without any additional envelopes. Further, the bill and receipt may be separated from the letter by the addressee. Furthe lines thermore the address does not have to be typed on the outside of the article as the name on the bill can be seen through the window opening 28. The device can be easily sealed and also easily opened.
It will thus be seen that there is provided a device in which the several objects of this invention are achieved, and which is well adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made of the above invention, and as various changes might be made in the embodiment above set forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth or shown in the accompanying drawing is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
ing a rectangular sheet. said sheet being formedwith scored lines parallel to and disposed inward- 1y from the lower, upper and end edges thereof and said sheet being further formed with a scored line parallel to the upper and lower edges thereof and disposed midway between said edges and inter-connecting the scored lines at the end edges of said sheet, the scored line parallel to the upper and lower edges being inter-connected to the scored line at the lower edge or the sheet by a scored line parallel to the end edges of the sheet, the lower half of the border portions below the scored line which is parallel to the upper and lower edges being provided with adhesive, said sheet being formed with a window opening adjacent one corner thereof, and a transparent sheet
