Abstract: A spring clip for attaching articles to a support surface includes an elongated spring member having opposed end portions adapted to resiliently engage the support surface and to have its central body releasably attached to the support surface. An actuating lever has one end attached to the spring adjacent one end of the spring with the lever extending in spaced relation to the spring to a free end near the other end of the spring. Resilient spacer means between the spring and lever acts as a fulcrum whereby force applied to the free end of the lever in the direction of the support surface will raise the end of the spring from the surface to enable articles to be inserted thereunder.

Abstract: A method for preparation of the final film used for engraving a flat screen, belt screen or rotary screen for a printing machine. The final film is prepared from a photograph of the image to be reproduced and engraved by known techniques on a screen so as to provide a continuous repetitive pattern on the face of a pile fabric dyed in a continuous print dyeing process.Select areas of photographic images are montaged and put into a repeat pattern within a predetermined outline to establish the basic repeat. Four continuous tone color separations are made of the selected pattern to provide yellow, blue, red and black continuous tone negatives which represent the four colors of the original image. Each color separation is posterized and half toned to provide eight positive films. The films are selectively combined, blown up to the desired repeat size to provide a negative or positive which is used to prepare a flat bed screen or rotary screen for an otherwise conventional printing process.
