Abstract

A mailer or business form intermediate including a built-in two-ply card is provided. The mailer comprises a single substrate sheet divided into three or four panels. The two-ply card is fashioned from lines of weakness forming single card plies in two adjacent panels which when folded come into contact and are held together with adhesive to form the two-ply card. Additional adhesives are employed to seal the mailer. Alternative embodiments include four panels in a side-by-side arrangement or a business form embodiment wherein the additional adhesives are not employed.
