Appeal No. 96-2712
Application 08/313,548
Claims 13 through 18, the only other claims remaining in
this application, stand allowed. Claims 2, 6, 7 and 8 have been
canceled.2
Appellants' invention relates to a card carrying mailing
form (10) which is adapted to allow automatic insertion,
attachment and carrying of at least one card (30). Claim 1 is
representative of the subject matter on appeal and a copy of that
claim, as it appears in the Appendix to appellants' brief, is
attached to this decision.
The prior art references of record relied upon by the
examiner as evidence of obviousness of the claimed subject matter
are:

Coit 1,171,592 Feb. 15, 1916

2Claims 1 and 3 have been amended (subsequent to the final rejection)
in a paper filed August 7, 1995 (Paper No. 18). As indicated on page 2 of the
examiner's answer, the rejections of claims 1, 3-5, 10 and 11 under 35 U.S.C.
§ 112, second paragraph, in the final rejection have now been overcome by the
above-noted amendment and are therefore withdrawn.
