Abstract
Abstract A magazine is provided with an insert which can be utilized as a return mailer. The insert can be stapled or glued in place when the plies of the magazine are assembled together and includes a multi-ply portion in another part of the magazine. The multi-ply portion has a pocket which contains one or more inserts and has a flap which can close over the pocket so that, when removed, the multi-ply portion can be used as a return mailer.
