Abstract

A mailer package formed from a single sheet of foldable stock material includes a compartment formed by first and second parallel panels joined together by first and second parallel sides. The sides extend along opposing edges of the panels. The compartment has opposing first and second open ends, with a number of tabs sufficient to cover and close each open end. A cover extends from an edge between one of the sides and panels. The cover has a closure flap with a tearable pull tab and is foldable between a closed position overlying a panel or side adjacent to the edge from which it extends, and an open position folded away from the compartment. The cover is releasably secured in the closed position by attachment of the closure flap to another panel or side. The secured cover is moveable to the open position with release of the pull tab.
