An unknown essay for a larger envelope (6¼ x 4½ inches) with the lines pained in a bright yellow-green with the wording "registered" struck in vermilion-red with a box in carmine; the envelope is complete with its scrim and gummed flap. An eye-catching and desirable essay. Photo

The Post Office wanted a design of envelope which was distinctive. The green mimics the green ribbon used on earlier registered mail
