Abstract

A greetings card, calender or other like article is made by re-photographing or photocopying a plurality of photographs, drawings, paintings or the like, together with additional decorative or informative material, with the reproduction being fixed to a card. The photographs or other original work are arranged in a desired location on a support (44), holding means (47) are actuated to retain the articles arrayed in place on the support, and the array is then exposed photographically or on a photocopier to produce the reproduction. By using a jig (40) which comprises a compressible support (44) with a transparent cover plate (46) one can use a colour photocopier to produce reproductions which can be affixed directly onto a card.
