a generally rectangular sheet of postcard stock having first and second side edges, first and second end edges, and first
and second faces;
a fold line extending substantially transverse to said side edges and substantially bisecting them, whereby said sheet is
divided by said fold line into first and second postcard portions;

said first and second postcard portions together adjacent said first and second end edges, and
adhesive patterns on said first face of said sheet adjacent said first and second side edges only near said fold line, whereby
said first face of said first and second postcard portions are not adhered together along a substantial majority of the extent
of the first and second side edges of said first and second postcard portions, said adhesive patterns on said first face of
said sheet adjacent said first and second side edges only near said fold line being substantially closer to said fold line
