In thousand-lots, these can be furnished to dealers with their firm name imprinted on both Folder and Return post card at a cost of. 2t/2 cents apiece, thus affording a high grade of direct mail literature at a price well befow what the individual firm would have to pay for such material, even excluding the cost of art-work, if it were to privately prepare its own mailing pieces.
