Picnic Basket weave

I found this tiny scrap of an envelope on the sidewalk talking a walk at work. It was literally the size of the scan I just cropped it a tiny bit. Not sure what it came from.

language (?) pattern on triplicate form

This is the yellow page of a triplicate form from Graphaids art supplies. It's not an envelope but the security feature on the side was curious enough for me to post here. Is it ancient hyroglyphics? Another alien language? an Asian langauage perhaps? Looks a little like some Japanese characters I've seen...

Alien writing

This was an envelope I found talking a walk near where I work. It looks like a check envelope of some kind because of the size. It looks like that alien writing in Transformers.

Dancing squares

This is from my archeology club brochure 9x12 envelope. I though it was cool because it's just tiny squares.
