Definitions
- the present invention relates to articles of stationery on which photographs or the like can be mounted, and in particular, although not exclusively to postcards and frames for photographs.
- an article of stationery comprising a card, a layer of adhesive on the card, and a sheet of protect i ve material covering the adhesi ve and separable therefrom by means of an intervening layer of releasable material, the sheet of protective material being divided into at least two separable areas within one another which can be removed separately to expose separate areas of the adhesive layer.
- an article of stationery which has a first central area of protective layer which is removeable to expose an area of adhesive for securing a first size of photograph or the like, and, further, has a strip of separable material about the central part of the protective layer which can be removed to expose more of the adhesive so that a larger photograph or the like can be mounted on the card.
- the strip of separable material completely circumscribes the said central area to form a ring.
- the strip may be subdi vided into separately removeable parts or, as is preferred, be a continuous ring.
- F igure 1 is a cross-section through an arti cle of stat ionery
- Figure 2 is a plan view of the article; and Figure 3 is a rear perspective view of the article with a rear support prop extended.
- an article of stationery 1 comprises a sheet of card 2 pre-printed on one side in any desired manner, a layer of adhesive 3 covering the other side of the sheet of card, and a sheet of protective material 4 covering the adhesive 3 and separated therefrom by a layer of releasable material 5.
- releasable material is intended to cover materials, such as silicone, which when coated on paper adheres the paper to certain adhesives slightly, while allowing removal of the paper to expose the adhesive for further use.
- the protective layer and layer of releasable material 5 are cut through to form a first, central area 7 which is independently removable to expose the adhesive beneath.
- Concentric rings 8 and 9 about the central area 7 are also cut into the protective layer and layer of releasa ble material. These cuts may be complete i.e. so that the areas 7, 8 and 9 are not connected or small, spaced apart tabs may be left joining the areas 7, 8 and 9 together. It will be appreciated that even when cut so that they are ' separated, the areas 7, 8 and 9 of the protective layer will be held in place by releasable contact of the protective layer 5 with the adhesive 3.
- the upper surface of the protecti ve layer 4 may be printed in any desired manner and may for example have details of the method of fixing a photograph to the card. Further, the sheet 4 may have printed thereon a gri d 10 for aligning a photograph with the removeable areas 7, 8 and 9 of the protective layer 4.
- a user wishing to mount a photograph on the card would align the photograph on the grid 10 so that the photograph is centralised.
- the user would then note which of the grid lines was outside the photograph and having removed the photograph then remove the central area 7 and those rings of protective material 4 up to but not including the ring beneath the guideline noted as being outside the area of the photograph.
- the photograph can then be attached to the card by the maximum area of adhesive compatible with the area of the card while not exposing undesirable adhesi ve outside of the edges of the photograph.
- E ven without the grid 10 a photograph can be compared with the card, and those areas 7, 8, 9 less in area than the photograph, can be removed.
- the grid 10, may be dimensioned to correspond to, or more particularly the areas 7, 8, 9 can be dimensioned to be just less than, the standard sizes of photographs, for example the width A may correspond to the standard size of 3i" width and the size B may correspond to the standard size of 4i" width, the central area 7 may correspond in size to the size of a standard instant photograph. It will be thus appreciated that the card can accommodate the standard photograph sizes and that by suitably selecting the size of the central areas 7 and the concentric rings 8 and 9 to be just less than the area seq uentially of the i nstant photograph, 3i" photograph, and 4 ⁇ " photograph, the card can be made adapted to securely carry any of the standard sizes of photograph.
- the cut about the inner area 7 may pass through the card along all but part of one side (7a ), and the central portion 7 can have a central fold-line 7b (see Figure 3 ).
- a rearwardly extending right-angled prop will be provided.
- this is only suitable for use with the larger sizes of photograph and could not be used if the photograph were attached to the card by means of the adhesive on the central area 7.
- the protective material 4 covering that control area 7, is therefore left-in place if the support prop is to be used.
- the photograph can still be sufficiently secured to the card by means of one or more of the outer concentric ring means 8,9.
Abstract
Un article de papeterie (1) comprend une carte (2), une couche d'adhésif (3) sur la carte, et une feuille de matière protectrice (4) recouvrant l'adhésif et pouvant être séparée de celui-ci au moyen d'une couche intermédiaire de matière pouvant être libérée (5). La feuille de matière protectrice (4) est divisée au moins en deux parties séparables (7, 8, 9), l'une se trouvant à l'intérieur de l'autre, et pouvant être enlevée séparément pour exposer des zones séparées de la couche adhésive.A stationery item (1) comprises a card (2), a layer of adhesive (3) on the card, and a sheet of protective material (4) covering the adhesive and which can be separated from it by means of 'an intermediate layer of releasable material (5). The sheet of protective material (4) is divided into at least two separable parts (7, 8, 9), one located inside the other, and which can be removed separately to expose areas separated from the adhesive layer.
