The only requirement to make this form perfect is to have the envelope in an equally easy and accessible form. Walker's "Letterettes" combine paper and envelope in a highly ingenious and practical manner, and the cover of the Tablet is a Blotter. The Referee "They are stylish and handy for home and office use. For travellers the advantages of the Letterettes are unquestionable." The Tatler "A Very ingenious invention called ‘Walker's Letterette Tablet." The first practical solution of the difficulty of producing and combining paper and envelope. The scheme by which you can write a letter on a pad, tear off, and despatch – the gum being already attached to the combined notepaper and envelope – has great advantages. The thing is not very easy to describe, but is unquestionably very ingenious." In tablets of 50, 1/0 & 1.3 each. Sold by Cox & Sharland, Stationers & Printers, 150, High Street, Southampton.
