Abstract: The present invention is a method of producing an imaging support which includes providing a support, simultaneously coating on a side of the support; a transparent magnetic recording layer including magnetic particles, a polymeric binder and an organic solvent, and a lubricating overcoat layer farthest from the support, the lubricating overcoat layer including a lubricant selected form the general formulas I, II or III:wherein general formula I comprises: ##STR1## wherein X is selected from the group consisting of esters, amides, ethers, or methylene, a is from 10 to 500, and b is from 4 to 3000, and the general formula I has a molecular weight at least 800;wherein general formula II comprises: ##STR2## wherein Y is selected from the group consisting of, --C-- and --N--, Z is selected from the group consisting of esters, amides, and a carbon-carbon bond, R is selected from the group consisting of methyl, and hydrogen or may be absent if Y equals nitrogen, c is from 1 to 2, d is from 4 to 3000, e is from 10 t

Abstract: The present invention is a method of producing an imaging support which includes providing a support, simultaneously coating on a side of the support; a transparent magnetic recording layer comprising magnetic particles, a polymeric binder and an organic solvent, and a lubricating overcoat layer farthest from the support, the lubricating overcoat layer comprising wax particles having a size from 0.01 .mu.m to 0.5 .mu.m, and an organic solvent; and drying the magnetic recording layer and the lubricating overcoat layer.

Abstract: The present invention is a photographic element which includes a support, and at least one light-sensitive silver halide layer on a front side of the support. The photographic element has on the backside of the support an antistatic layer; a transparent magnetic recording layer; and a lubricating overcoat layer. The lubricating overcoat layer is farthest from the support and includes a lubricant of the general formula:R--CONH.sub.2where R is a long chain hydrocarbon between 12 and 30 carbons, preferably between 16 and 22.The present invention also provides a method of producing an imaging support which includes, providing a support, and simultaneously coating on the support; a transparent magnetic recording layer including magnetic particles, a polymeric binder and an organic solvent, and a lubricating overcoat layer, the lubricating overcoat layer comprising a lubricant of the general formula:R--CONH.sub.
