PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION..
Improvements in Combined Envelope and Note Paper or the like.
I, JACOB HERTZ of 101 Leadenhall Street City of London Merchants Agent do
hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
My invention refers to combined envelopes and note paper such as described in the
Specification of my Patent No. 8672 of 1887 and consists in an article of manufacture
made of paper, cardboard or the like and consisting of a half or full sheet of note
paper (or card) in one piece with a piece of paper (or card) suitable for containing
advertisements and forming also. partly a portion of the envelope and with a piece of
paper (or card) forming the other part of the envelope whereon the postage stamp is
embossed. A suitable form is as follows. The part containing the embossed stamp
has a folding over flap at the top and on one side which flaps may be gummed as
nsual. Below and in continuation of this part is a part double its depth which I call
the advertisement part and it has folding over flaps which may be gummed as usual
at the bottom and on one side of its lower half part. The body of this portion of the
article is intended or suitable for the reception of advertisements. In order to provide
additional space suitable for advertisements in some cases I extend the upper half
of the said advertisement part to one side. On the opposite side of the said
advertisement part I provide a half or full sheet of note paper which can be
used for writing on both sides and cut off from the rest of the article by the receiver
of the letter. For the ready detachment the border line between the note paper and
the advertisement part may be perforated.
By my invention the purchase of an article made as described will have no induce--
ment to use the stamped envelope part by itself or detached from the advertisement
and note paper part and fraudulent appropriation of the stamp is impossible because it
is embossed and undetachable and the separate use of the envelope part containing it
is impossible as it only forms part of an envelope the other part being on the adver-
tisement sheet. The advantage to the advertisers is great because the advertisements

page_text: will come under the observation both of the sender and the receiver of the article.
The advertiser or the advertizing agent having thus a guarantee as to the usefulness
of the advertisements can afford to pay so high a price for advertising that the seller
of the article can afford to sell it with a very good profit at a less price than the
value of the postage stamp. The public at the same time will have the advantage
of thus buying the stamp an envelope and a piece of note paper for less than the
price of the stamp alone.

page_text: I, JACOB HERTZ of 101 Leadenhall Street, City of London, Merchants Agent do
hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
:-
My invention refers to combined envelopes and note paper such as described in the
Specification of the patent in my name No. 8672 of 1887, being further improve-
ments based on the invention the subject of that patent and consists in an article
of manufacture made of paper, cardboard or the like and produced by a half or
full sheet of note paper (or card) in one piece with a piece of paper (or card)
suitable or intended for containing advertisements and forming also partly a portion
of the envelope and with a piece of paper (or card) forming the other part of the
envelope whereon the postage stamp is embossed.
Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings shows the outer side of a combined
envelope and note paper made according to this invention Figure 2 shows the
inner side of same Figure 3 the article in the process of being folded and closed,
and Figure 4 when closed.
The part A containing the embossed stamp S has a folding over flap A¹ at the
top and another A2 on one side which flaps may be gummed as usual. Below and
in continuation of this part A is a part B Figure 1 double its depth which I call the
advertisement part and it has folding over flaps B and B at the bottom and on one
side respectively of its lower half part, which flaps may be gummed as usual. The
body of this portion of the article is intended or suitable for the reception of adver-
tisements. Moreover as seen in Figure 2 the back or inside of the stamp embossed
part A and also the back or inside of the next following half portion of B is also
suitable for the reception of advertisements. In order to provide additional space
suitable for advertisements in some cases 1 extend the upper balf of the aforesaid
"advertisement part" to one side as shewn at B* Figure 2. On the opposite side of
the said advertisement part I provide a half sheet C or full sheet of note paper which
can be used for writing on both sides and if desired cut off from the rest of the article
by the receiver of the letter. For the ready detachment the border line between the
note paper and the advertisement part may be perforated.
Figure 5 shews a modified form in which the note paper part C is arranged higher
up, and in which the advertisement part is extended to one side at B*.
In Figure 6 is shewn another form of stamp advertizing envelope sheet in which
the part B C is arranged centrally with the part A. The whole inside of B C is
available for writing or it may be the middle part or one half page of it only the
rest being used for advertisements while the outside of BC (the underside in this
view) is available for advertisements. The flap A' is by preference made of the full
size A shewn in dotted lines so as to cover the advertisements when the article is
folded. To fold it I first fold down the side flaps of the part B C, then double it.

page_text: back upon itself then fold down the flaps A' A' A³ successively, and then fold the
flap B₁ upon the opposite or front side of the envelope.
Figure 7 shews another form in which the one or both sides of the part C is
used for writing on while both sides of the part B are available for advertisements.
Figure 8 shews the back of the folded article.
Figure 9 represents a modified form of Figure 6 the advertisements being
arranged on one inner half and one opposite outer half of the letter sheet.
In all the figures the flap B¹ may be omitted especially if the sheet is doubled
upon itself in the opposite direction to that mentioned, but in some cases not so
advantageously.
By my invention the purchaser of an article made as described will have no
inducement to use the stamp embossed envelope part A by itself or detached from
the advertisement part and note paper part, and the fraudulent appropriation of the
stamp is impossible because it is embossed and undetachable and separate use of the
envelope part containing the embossed stamp is impossible as it only forms part of
an envelope the other part being on the advertisement sheet. The advantage to the
advertizer is great because the advertisements will come under the observation both
of the sender and the receiver of the article. The advertizer or the advertizing agent
having thus a guarantee as o the usefulness of the advertisements can afford to pay
so high a price for advertising that the original seller of the article and the retail
seller can afford to sell it with a very good profit at a less price than the value of
the postage stamp. The public at the same time will have the advantage of thus
buying the stamp and envelope and a piece of note paper for less than the price of
the stamp alone.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
The mode or system of advertising by the manufacture and sale of the improved
combined envelope and note paper sheet in which the stamp is embossed on the
envelope part A, the parts for advertisements and for writing on and the flaps being
arranged substantially as described and shewn.

suitable or intended for containing advertisements and forming also partly a portion
of the envelope and with a piece of paper (or card) forming the other part of the
envelope whereon the postage stamp is embossed.
Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings shows the outer side of a combined
envelope and note paper made according to this invention Figure 2 shows the
inner side of same Figure 3 the article in the process of being folded and closed,
and Figure 4 when closed.
The part A containing the embossed stamp S has a folding over flap A¹ at the
top and another A² on one side which flaps may be gummed as usual. Below and
in continuation of this part A is a part B Figure 1 double its depth which I call the
advertisement part and it has folding over flaps B₁ and B² at the bottom and on one
side respectively of its lower half part, which flaps may be gummed as usual. The
body of this portion of the article is intended or suitable for the reception of adver-

part A and also the back or inside of the next following half portion of B is also
suitable for the reception of advertisements. In order to provide additional space
suitable for advertisements in some cases I extend the upper half of the aforesaid
"advertisement part" to one side as shewn at B* Figure 2. On the opposite side of
the said advertisement part I provide a half sheet C or full sheet of note paper which
can be used for writing on both sides and if desired cut off from the rest of the article
by the receiver of the letter. For the ready detachment the border line between the
note paper and the advertisement part may be perforated.
Figure 5 shews a modified form in which the note paper part C is arranged higher
up, and in which the advertisement part is extended to one side at B*.
Figure 6 illustrates a modified form in which the three flaps A¹ A* A³ are at the
top and sides of the part A containing the embossed stamp all these four parts being
available for advertisements on the inside. The part B is available for advertisements
on the whole of the inside and also on the outside (in Figure 6 the underside)
except as regards the triangular part indicated by the dotted lines B³. Figure 3
shews the front of the envelope sheet when folded, the flap B' being on that front
side, while the three other flaps are on the back.

page_text: In Figure 8 is shewn another form of stamp advertizing envelope sheet in which
the part B C. is arranged centrally with the part A. The whole inside of BC is
available for writing or it may be the middle part or one half page of it only the
rest being used for advertisements while the outside of B C (the underside in this
view) is available for advertisements. The flap A' is by preference made of the full
Size A shewn in dotted lines so as to cover the advertisements when the article is
folded. To fold it I first fold down the side flaps of the part B C, then double it
back upon itself then fold down the flaps A1 A2 A3 successively, and then fold the
flap B¹ upon the opposite or front side of the envelope.
Figure 9 shews another form in which the one or both sides of the part C is
used for writing on while both sides of the part B are available for advertisements.
Figure 10 shews the back of the folded article.
Figure 11 represents a modified form of Figure 8 the advertisements being
arranged on one inner half and one opposite outer half of the letter sheet.
In all the figures the flap B¹ may be omitted especially if the sheet is doubled
upon itself in the opposite direction to that mentioned, but in some cases not so
advantageously.
By my invention the purchaser of an article made as described will have no
inducement to use the stamp embossed envelope part A by itself or detached from
the advertisement part and note paper part, and the fraudulent appropriation of the
stamp is impossible because it is embossed and undetachable and separate use of the
envelope part containing the embossed stamp is impossible as it only forms part of
an envelope the other part being on the advertisement sheet. The advantage to the
advertizer is great because the advertisements will come under the observation both
