This series contains bulletins that were distributed to Du Pont's cellophane salesmen. The Cellophane Division of the Rayon Dept. became the Film Dept. in 1950, and later cellophane advertising can be found in that series. The bulletins discuss sales strategies, new products and customers, prices, and general procedures. The bulletins promote the use of cellophane for adhesive tape, but primarily as packaging. Consumer surveys and studies rate the appeal of cellophane packaging for a variety of products. Attached to many of the bulletins were cellophane advertisements and samples. The advertisements have been flattened and boxed separately, and the samples transferred to the artifact collections of the Hagley Museum. During World War II, series of bulletins like "Army-Navy Packaging News" and "Lend-Lease Information" promoted the use of cellophane to wrap army rations and first-aid materials.
