摘要

A mailing device (10) comprises a blank (12) of foldable material defining at least two panels (14, 16) separated by one or more fold lines (18). At least two of the panels (14, 16) have removable edge regions (24, 26, 30) and an inner surface of the removable edge regions of a first of the panels (14) is coated with adhesive to enable the edge regions to be bonded to corresponding removable edge regions of another panel when the blank is folded. A sheet of material (36) is affixed to an inner surface of one of the panels (14) so as to cover an inner region of the panel within the removable edge regions. The sheet (36) may be printed on with a security hatching. Releasable tape (34) may be applied over the adhesive and the sheet (36) may be made of the same material as the release tapes. Various other mailing devices are also disclosed.
