Abstract: Cloth, such as cotton, burlap, or canvas, has a photographic emulsion laminated thereto, along with an outer protective film. The composite laminate formed is permanent, and sufficiently firmly affixed to the cloth that the cloth is machine washable without substantial damage or alteration of the laminated image. The method of making the cloth laminated with photographic emulsion comprises applying the photographic emulsion facedown on a protective film, coating with adhesive and applying the cloth, drying the emulsion and cloth and pressing between plates, at least one of which is heated. By dipping the emulsion in a stripping solution prior to applying to the protective film, adherence and permanence of the laminate formed is substantially increased.
