The novelty mailer includes a shatterproof thin-wall container, preferably transparent, which has an opening through which both a written message or parcel and decorations may be passed therethrough.

The decorations are preferably materials which identify a region and may include a decorative label of a region, while the closure means may be a stopper or closable lid. The closure means may also be sealed after being closed in or over the opening to provide visible indicia of unauthorized tampering.
