The provision shall be set forth in the policy under appropriate caption, and if not so printed on the face page of the policy adequate notice of the provision shall be printed or stamped conspicuously on the face page.(2) The policy may be so returned to the insurer at its home or branch office or to the agent through whom it was applied for, and thereupon shall be void as from the beginning and as if the policy had not been issued.[I.C., sec. 41-2138, as added by 1969, ch. 214, sec. 58, p. 625.]
