[Dx-qsl] Envelopes

Can you guys in the US not get what's called here in Europe, size C6 
envelopes from stationers?
These are approximately 6 3/8" x 4 1/2" (16 x 11.5cm) and come in white, 
manilla, airmail, gummed, peel&stick, you name it, and they're available 
everywhere!
In 47 years of QSLing, BC, SWL and Ham, I cannot remember having had any 
problem with return QSLs from anywhere using these!
Lucky me...Right?
You could try Googling "C6 envelopes" for possible suitable suppliers?
I normally fold the return envelope inside another C6 but if I want to 
"nest" when sending to "dodgy" places I use 7" x 5" for the outgoing 
envelope. This size is a bit special and I get mine from Ryman Stationers 
uk, dunno if you can get them in the US by hunting around a bit?
Good Luck
