Abstract

Abstract A transparency is disclosed, which is suitable for use in a multicolored xerographic reproduction process comprising a transparent, thermoplastic film sheet having at least one surface coated with a material selected from the group of long chain aliphatic hydrocarbons. The coated transparency, when used in a multicolored electrostatic copying process improves adhesion of the multicolored image thereon and permits reproduction of colors and color densities in said image which correspond well to the multicolored original copied.
