A
book-packet
may
contain
any
number
of
separate
books
or
other
publications
(including
printed
or
lithographed
letters),
photographs
(when
not
on
glass
or
in
cases
containing
glass),
prints,
maps,
or
any
quantity
or
quality
of
paper,
parchment,
or
vellum.
The
whole
of
this
description
of
paper,
books,
and
other
publications,
may
either
be
printed,
written,
engraved,
lithographed,
or
plain,
or
the
packet
may
consist
of
a
mixture
of
any
or
all
these
varieties.
The
binding,
mounting,
or
covering
of
books
and
rollers,
&c.
in
the
case
of
prints
or
maps,
are
allowed.
In
short,
whatever
usually
appertains
to
the
sort
of
articles
described,
or
whatever
is
necessary
for
their
safe
transmission,
may
be
forwarded
through
the
post
at
the
same
rate
charged
for
the
articles
themselves.
(g)
Among
the
general
restrictions,
we
find
the
following:--
No
book-packet
must
exceed
two
feet
in
length,
width,
or
depth.
No
book-packet
must
contain
anything
inclosed
which
is
sealed
against
inspection,
nor
must
there
be
any
letter
inclosed,
or
anything
in
the
way
of
writing
in
the
packet
of
the
nature
of
a
communication,
either
separate
or
otherwise.
Entries
on
the
first
page
of
a
book,
merely
stating
who
sends
it,
are
allowable
(and
even
desirable
in
case
of
failure
of
delivery)
inasmuch
as
they
are
not
regarded
as
of
the
nature
of
a
letter.
Any
packets
found
with
a
communication
written
in
it
(if
the
communication
in
question
cannot
be
taken
out,
but
forms
a
component
part
of
the
packet)
will
be
charged
with
the
unpaid
letter
postage,
and
then
sent
forward.
