The improved business forms continuous stationery assembly as described in claim 1 wherein the first outer record web of the assembly is disposed on the outside of the fold; and wherein the means for securing the free end of the paper staple tongue are spots of adhesive on the inner facing face of the other outer record web. 3. The improved business forms continuous stationery assembly as described in claim 1 wherein the relative movement means are disposed along one longitudinal marginal side of the assembly. 4. The improved business forms continuous stationery assembly as described in claim 1 wherein feed apertures are disposed along a longitudinal line adjacent to one side marginal edge of the assembly; and wherein the relative movement means are disposed along the same longitudinal line and between the feed apertures. 5. The improved business forms as described in claim 1 wherein the stationery assembly includes at least one intermediate, interleaved record web disposed between the first and second webs; wherein each intermediate record web has a plurality of cooperating apertures therein; and wherein the intermediate record webs, and the cooperating apertures therein, are disposed, with respect to the first and second record webs, so that a cooperating aperture is disposed adjacent to a paper staple tongue in the adjacent outer, one record web and so that the free end of the paper staple tongue may pass through the cooperating aperture and contact the other record web. 6. The improved business forms as described in claim 5 wherein a plurality of intermediate record webs are disposed between the first and second record webs.
