Abstract
Abstract This multiple ply assembly yields individual invoice/itinerary sheets and a traveler's ticket-holding folder with the invoice/itinerary information printed directly on the flap. Invoice/itinerary information entered on the outer ply is printed on the area corresponding in size and orientation on all plies. When this corresponding portion of the next to last ply is detached, yielding an additional invoice/itinerary sheet, the remainder of the next to last ply forms a pocket on one corner of the last ply by means of adhesive. The portion of the last ply corresponding in size and orientation to the outer ply forms the flap of a ticket-holding folder, of which the aforementioned pocket is a part.
