Integral printed sheet products
First Claim
1. An integral printed sheet product comprising:
- a planar core having first and second opposing major planar sides, the core being formed by first and second strips of different materials positioned side-by-side, the second core strip being printed on the first major side of the core with a plurality of variable data fields, the variable data fields being spaced apart from one another on the second core strip, each variable data field of the plurality being printed with a unique code, the codes printed in all of the variable data fields of the sheet product being identical;
a first cover strip integrally secured to each of the first and second core strips holding the first and second core strips in side by side position, the first cover strip only partially covering the second major planar side of the core and at least partially covering each of the first and second core strips while extending completely across the second major side of the core and the first and second core strips; and
scoring extending at least sufficiently through the sheet product in the second core strip to define at least a first card element removable from a remainder of the sheet product, the scoring separating at least first and second variable data fields of the plurality, the first removable card element including at least the second variable data field and only a portion of the second core strip, at least the first variable data field being left on an integral remainder of the sheet product including at least the first core strip.

Abstract
An integral printed sheet product includes a planar core formed by first and second strips of different materials positioned side-by-side, the second core strip being printed on a first major side with a plurality variable data fields, the variable data fields being spaced apart from one another on the second core strip, each variable data field being printed with a unique code, the codes printed in all of the variable data fields of the sheet product being identical. A first cover strip is integrally secured to each of the first and second core strips holding the first and second core strips in side by side position. The first cover strip only partially covers the second major planar side of the core and at least partially covers each of the first and second core strips while extending completely across the second major side of the core and the first and second core strips. Scoring extends at least sufficiently through the sheet product in the second core strip to define at least a first card element removable from a remainder of the sheet product with the second variable data field and only a portion of the second core strip. At least the first variable data field is left on an integral remainder of the sheet product including at least the first core strip.

17. An integral printed sheet product comprising:
-
a planar core having first and second opposing major planar sides, the core being formed by first and second core flexible strips of different materials positioned side-by-side without overlap, at least the second core strip being printed on the first major side of the core with a plurality of variable data fields, the variable data fields being spaced apart from one another on the second core strip, at least two of the variable data fields being printed with a unique code, and any codes printed in the variable data fields of the sheet product being identical; a first cover strip integrally secured to each of the first and second core strips holding the first and second core strips in parallel, side-by-side position, the first cover strip only partially covering one of the first and second major planar sides of the core and at least partially covering each of the first and second core strips while extending completely across the one major planar side of the core and the first and second core strips; and first scoring extending at least sufficiently through the sheet product in the second core strip to define at least a first element removable from a remainder of the sheet product, the first scoring separating at least two of the variable data fields of the plurality printed with the unique code, the first removable element including at least one of the at least two variable data fields printed with the unique code and only a portion of the second core strip, at least a remaining one of the two variable data fields printed with the unique code being left on a remainder of the sheet product. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

26. An integral printed sheet product comprising:
-
a planar core having first and second opposing major planar sides, the core being formed by first and second flexible core strips of different materials positioned side-by-side without overlap; a first cover strip integrally secured to each of the first and second core strips holding the first and second core strips in parallel, side-by-side position without overlap of the core strips, the first cover strip only partially covering one of the major planar sides of the core and only partially covering at least one of the first and second core strips while extending completely across the one major side of the core and the first and second core strips; and first scoring extending at least sufficiently through the sheet product in the second core strip and through the first cover strip to define at least a first element removable from a remainder of the sheet product. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29, 30)
