Taxpayer makes photocopies of accounts receivable ledger cards, folds, inserts the copies together with return envelopes into window envelopes, meters and mails the statements. The copy paper and envelopes are provided by the taxpayer. A lump-sum charge is made.

The photocopying is regarded as sales of photocopies which are taxable. The sale of the envelopes is taxable.

Accordingly, only the charge for the postage is not subject to tax. 7/14/75.
