Road atlases with order forms on the back of a map

Has anyone ever faced the irritation of a road atlas that contains an order form or coupon that's on the other side of one of the maps in the atlas?

What I'm talking about here is a form you have to cut out of the atlas and mail in for some sort of deal, so when you cut it out, you ruin the atlas.

Somebody told me they buyed a road atlas for a big road trip, and then a family member cut out the order form without permission, which ruined the atlas.

I think I have a Gousha road atlas from the 1990s somewhere that has an order form like this, but I made sure nobody ever raided it. That atlas though is weird. I remember much of northeastern Kentucky being covered up by one of the insets.

You could always just photocopy that page. But then again, in the era where you had to cut order forms out of things you probably wouldn't have easy access to a photocopier. Although I remember some grocery stores and places like that would have a coin-op copier you could use for a dime or something. In the 90s there were places like Kinko's, but most people probably wouldn't care about their atlas enough to do a whole trip to Kinko's over it.
