63. Packets of printed papers for transmission to the United Kingdom may not exceed 2 feet in length and 1 foot in width or depth except in the case of those sent in the form of a roll, when the maximum dimensions shall be—for printed and commercial papers, 2 ft. 6 in. in length and 4 inches in diameter, and for samples 12 inches in length by 6 inches in diameter. For other countries packets of printed papers may not exceed 18 inches in length, width, or depth. Such packets may not exceed 5 lb. in weight, except in the case of packets consisting of literature embossed for the use of the blind, addressed to the United Kingdom, which packets may weigh up to 6 lb. Printed papers may be placed either in wrappers, upon rollers, between boards, in covers open at both sides or at both ends, or in unclosed envelopes, or simply folded in such a manner as not to conceal the nature of the packet, or tied with a string easy to unfasten, but must be made up in such a manner as to admit of the contents being easily withdrawn for examination. Address cards and all printed matter of the form and substance of an unfolded card may be forwarded without wrapper, envelope, fastening, or fold.
