  • Patent number: 4183162
    Abstract: A panoramic picture is taken to produce a negative with a panoramic image thereon, and a panoramic print is then made on a single sheet of double-wide photographic paper. The print is cut into two equal panels along a cutting line extending at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the print, and hinge members are fastened to the rear of the two panels along the cut edges. The hinge members are then secured in an album to mount the two picture panels in aligned, side-by-side relationship, with a narrow gap therebetween to prevent damage during closing and opening of the album. The hinge elements have a color tone corresponding to the general color tone of the central portion on the picture, to minimize the visibility of the gap. A triple-wide picture can also be made, with is divided into three panels, with the third panel being connected to the second by a hinge element.
