Hereinafter, a method for producing a concealed postcard according to the present invention will be described. The paper used for manufacturing the concealed postcard of the present invention has a configuration in which the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 11 are formed on both sides of the paper substrate 10, and cannot be peeled off when the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 11 are pressed together. A material having a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11 that is strongly adhered is used. Using continuous paper of the above configuration,
Providing a halftone dot printing layer by printing on a surface that is releasably adhered in a state of fixed information and a concealed postcard by an offset printing machine or the like, and a folding line is formed at a predetermined position of the printed continuous paper.
A step of providing a notch, a step of printing and printing personal information on continuous paper provided with a folding line and a notch; A process of cutting and separating into postcards,
Cutting and removing the fold portion on the side with the indication of "postcard" which has been folded and adhered.

First, printing of fixed information and printing of a halftone dot printing layer are performed by using a continuous paper made of a laminate in which a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed on both sides of a paper substrate 10, and a predetermined position is printed in-line with the printing. A fold line and a notch are provided in the box to produce a continuous body of postcard pieces. The configurations of the produced individual postcard pieces are as shown in FIGS. As shown in FIG. 3, the front surface of the postcard, the main body 2 and the backing 3 are folded lines as shown in FIG.
4b and the folding line 4a, and
Along the inside of the cutting line 8 at the side edge of the folding line 4b, a sign indicating that the postcard is a postcard, such as "postcard" or "POSCARD", is given. 4c, a notch 7 is formed at the lower end of the backing sheet piece 3 on the fold line 4b side, and both sides of the fold line 4b are cut lines 8, so that the cover sheet 1
The halftone print layer 9 is formed on the surface of the main body sheet 2 and the cover sheet 1 which are opposed to each other when the sheet is folded on the surface of the main body sheet 2. As shown in FIG. 4, the back side of the postcard is folded when the backing sheet 3 is folded over the back side of the main body sheet 2.
The halftone print layer 9 is formed in a region other than the bonding portion 5 on the side edge of the surface of the backing paper piece 3. The stacking configuration of postcards is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 1, a cover body 1 and a main body sheet 2 are formed of a laminate in which a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11 is formed on both sides of a paper base 10 respectively.
A halftone dot printing layer 9 is formed on the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11 so as to correspond to the surfaces of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11 and the backing paper piece 3 that are to be releasably bonded.

When the cover 1 is folded on the surface of the main body 2, the surfaces of the main body 2 and the cover 1 are opposed to each other, and when the back 3 is folded on the back of the main body 2, The halftone dot printing layer 9 formed in the area of the backing paper piece 3 excluding the bonding portion 5 may be formed on both opposing surfaces as in this embodiment, or may be formed on only one surface. When the backing paper piece 3 is folded on the back surface of the main body paper piece 2, the adhesive portion 5 where the halftone print layer 9 is not formed on the opposing surfaces of the main body paper piece 2 and the backing paper piece 3, Since the surfaces of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 11 formed on each other are adhered to each other, they are strongly adhered, and the main body paper piece 2 and the backing paper piece 3 are bonded and fixed at the bonding portion 5. By forming the dot printing layer 9 on the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 11 are bonded to each other via the dot printing layer 9, so that they can be peelably bonded without strongly bonding. It is preferable to set the area ratio of the halftone dots in the halftone dot printing layer 9 in a range of 10 to 30% with respect to the entire area.

Next, the fixed information and the halftone dot printing layer are printed, and the personal information is output and printed using a laser printer or the like in a predetermined area of a continuous body of postcard pieces provided with folding lines and notches. Personal information is printed on one or both sides of the continuum of postcard pieces provided with a halftone dot printing layer. The continuous paper on which the personal information is output and printed is folded in three in a Z shape along the folding lines 4a and 4b so that the cover piece 1 folds on the surface of the main body piece 2 and the back paper piece 3 folds on the back side of the main body piece 2. By pressure bonding, the state shown in FIG. 6 is obtained. In this state, the bonding portion 5 is bonded to the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11 on which the dot printing layer 9 is not formed, so that the bonding portion 5 is strongly bonded so that it cannot be peeled off. On the contrary,
Of the opposing surfaces of the cover sheet 1 and the main body sheet 2 and the opposing surfaces of the main body sheet 2 and the backing sheet 3, the area excluding the adhesive portion 5, that is, the surfaces on which the halftone print layer 9 is formed are peeled off. Glued as possible. Lastly, the side edge of the continuous postcard folded and folded in three at the fold line 4b side is cut off at the cutting line 8 and cut into individual postcards at predetermined positions to separate the postcard. Is completed.

As the ink for forming the halftone dot printing layer 9, a non-colorless, colorless and transparent ink of the same kind as the offset ink used for printing the fixed items of the concealed postcard can be used. Since the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11 has a property of not adhering unless its surfaces are pressed together and pressurized, if the halftone printing layer 9 is interposed between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 11,
Since the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 11 do not come into contact with each other in the portion with the mark, they do not adhere to each other, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 11 come into contact with each other only in the portion without the dot printing layer 9, so that the pressure-sensitive adhesive Since the area where the agent layers 11 are in contact with each other, that is, the bonding area is reduced, the bonding strength is reduced and a peelable bonding state can be obtained. By changing the halftone dot area ratio of the halftone dot printing layer 9 in the range of 10 to 30% in accordance with the adhesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11 formed on the paper substrate 10 and the intended peel strength, The peel strength between them can be adjusted. It is optional to provide the halftone dot printing layer 9 on both sides of the surface to which the halftone printing layer 9 is peelably adhered or only on one side, but in any case, the halftone dot area ratio is set to 10 so that an appropriate peeling strength is obtained. What is necessary is just to adjust in the range of 30%. The personal information data output printing is performed on the halftone dot printing layer 9 formed on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 11 surface.
By setting the value to 0 to 30%, there is no problem in data output printing.
