In the case of a printed or engraved letterhead, the written heading should consist only of the date. The printed date-line is not good. To mix printed and written or typed characters detracts from the neat appearance of the letter.

When the address is engraved, the date may be written at the end of the last sheet, from the left-hand corner, directly after the signature.
