Abstract

Abstract A sheet suitable for making typewriter producible negatives to impart an identifying title to light-sensitive material which comprises an opaque sheet formed with a narrow rectangular area defined by spaced parallel perforations in the sheet affording removal of the sheet material from the rectangular area and a carbon ribbon secured to the sheet such that typing on the ribbon transfers the carbon to the removable sheet material in the rectangular area affording transparent areas in the ribbon defining the indicia desired for the title.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 156 words
A titling sheet for use in producing any selected title to be imparted to light-sensitive material to expose thereon the selected identifying title comprising an opaque sheet of card stock formed with a rectangular area defined by spaced parallel perforations in the card stock affording facile removal of the card stock within that area; a strip of ribbon, comprising a transparent backing of polyethylene film 0.75 to 1.0 mil in thickness and a coating of transferable opaque pigment material, disposed on said card stock with the coated surface overlaying and contacting said area defined by said perforations; means securing said ribbon to said card stock whereby pressure on said transparent backing will transfer pigment material from the coated surface of said ribbon to said card stock and removal from said ribbon upon the peeling of the area of card stock between said perforation from the card affording transparent areas in said ribbon defining the desired indicia.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 156 words
A titling sheet for use in producing any selected title to be imparted to light-sensitive material to expose thereon the selected identifying title comprising an opaque sheet of card stock formed with a rectangular area defined by spaced parallel perforations in the card stock affording facile removal of the card stock within that area; a strip of ribbon, comprising a transparent backing of polyethylene film 0.75 to 1.0 mil in thickness and a coating of transferable opaque pigment material, disposed on said card stock with the coated surface overlaying and contacting said area defined by said perforations; means securing said ribbon to said card stock whereby pressure on said transparent backing will transfer pigment material from the coated surface of said ribbon to said card stock and removal from said ribbon upon the peeling of the area of card stock between said perforation from the card affording transparent areas in said ribbon defining the desired indicia.
