In accordance such as lamp shades, wall panels and the like, with this invention, such pictures as those apand, when they carry a picture which has been pearing on magazine covers, and in other similar placed thereon by the instant process, constitute places, are intended to be transferred or transa novelty of some little value. posed to various fabric bases, of which lamp The first important step in carrying out the 15 shades are typical. instant process is to apply to and impregnate the In view of the relative cheapness of the origifabric, which is to constitute the base of the nal subjects, and to the end of maintaining the finished article, with an adhesive mass.

The first of these methods consists of applying turpentine to the face of the fabric which has been in contact with the original subject and permitting the turpentine to dry. Linseed oil is then applied in the same manner as the turpentine and permitted to dry. The same effects obtained by the applications of the turpentine and linseed oil may be obtained by the use of any well-known commercial filler. After the application of either the turpentine and linseed oil or the filler, which is effective to bring out th coloring on the fabric, the latter is fixed by the application of a fixative. A fixative of any desired composition may be employed, although either one of two compositions is preferably employed. The first of these consists of pure spirits of terebenthene with onehalf of one percent. oil of mirbane added, and the second is what is'a combined developing and fixing solution which consists of the mixture of gum arabic and rosin which are suitably boiled and thinned out to a desired consistency with pure turpentine. By proceeding in accordance with the method described, the-fabric with the picture thereon is rendered translucent and transparent.
The application of the fixative to the fabric fixes the colors so as to provide a permanent finished product. If the fabric is not of a desired thickness, it may be stiffenedby one or more applications of balloon dope and, when this step is included in the process, it constitutes the final step thereof.
In choosing a fabric for the base of the finished article, any color for the base may be chosen which will blend with the picture of the original subject. Thisfeature is of importance because it will enable the person availing of the process to obtain a different appearance effect from that provided by the picture as it appears on the original base. Also, when it is desired to obtain richer tone effects, poppy oil may be used in place of the linseed oil which is employed to bring out the coloring.
It is evident that the carrying out of the foregoing process does not necessarily involve the use of ,a skilled operator, nor are the materials essential to the process particularly expensive. The fact is everything associated with the process lends to a finished product of relatively small cost, and the essential simplicity of the process insures of its being properly carried out without liability of mistake or marring of the finished transposed picture. The feature of transferring the picture to a fabric base is of importance because a fabric is essentially flexible and is susceptible of being formed intovarious commercial articles such as lamp shades and the like.
While a preferred specific embodiment of the invention is hereinbefore set forth, it is to be understood that the invention is not to be limited in connection with the specific steps and materials described, as various modifications of these details may be provided in putting the invention into practice within the purview of the appended claims.
We claim as our invention:
1; A process for transposing a picture from an original subject to a fabric base, which consists in first impregnating the fabric with an adhesive 5 mass having a base of para rubber and additional constituents in the form of rosin, zinc oxide, White wax and spermaceti, causing a close intimate contact between the picture on the original subject and the fabric, then stripping the fabric from the original subject, applying materials to bring out the coloring on the fabric, and then applying a fixative to fix the coloring on the fabric.
2. A process for transposing a picture from an original subject to a fabric base, which consistsin first impregnating the fabric with an adhesive mass having a base of para rubber and additional constituents in the form of rosin, zinc oxide, white wax and spermaceti, causing a close intimate contact between the picture on the original subject and the fabric, then stripping the fabric from the original subject, applying materials to bring out the coloring on the fabric, and then applying a fixative which consists of pure spirits of terebenthene and one-half of one percent. of oil of mirbane.
3. A process for transposing a picture from an original subject to a fabric base, which consists in first impregnating the fabric with an adhesive mass having a base of para rubber and additional constituents in the form of rosin, zinc oxide, white wax and spermaceti, causing a close intimate contact between the picture on the original subject and the fabric, then stripping the fabric from the original subject, applying materials to bring out the coloring on the fabric, and then applying a fixative consisting of gum arabic, rosin and turpentine.
