Patent number: 4708369Abstract: Each unit of the stock for a match-the-hidden-indicia game includes a base sheet printed on one face with a visually ascertainable pattern of indicia, and a cover sheet also printed on one face with a visually ascertainable pattern of indicia which may or may not match the pattern on the base sheet. The one face of the base sheet on at least a band including the pattern of indicia, is provided with a transparent coating of permanent adhesive, and a liner layer is facially adhered thereto. The relative attraction of the permanent adhesive for the one surface of the base sheet and the liner layer is such that any attempt to remove the liner layer will substantially disrupt the one surface, thus giving evidence of an attempt to tamper with the pattern of indicia on the base sheet.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 1986Date of Patent: November 24, 1987Assignee: Moore Business Forms, Inc.Inventor: Walter G. Greig

Patent number: 4687526Abstract: A high-security identification card is produced in a system in which a photograph from a video camera is converted to digital data and reproduced with high-fidelity on a video display screen. Other images, such as signatures and fingerprints, can be treated in a similar manner using either a video camera or a CCD (charge-coupled device). After processing, the video information is displayed on the screen where it is combined with variable data typed in from a keyboard. The digital data from the terminal is fed into a laser printer that prints the portrait and any desired alphanumeric information on a paper sheet. The paper is then laminated, under heat and pressure, between two sheets of transparent thermoplastic material, at a temperature and pressure sufficient to cause the plastic material to penetrate the interstices between the fibers of the paper card and form a unitary structure that cannot be delaminated without destruction of the identifying data.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 1986Date of Patent: August 18, 1987Assignee: Identification Systems Company L.P.Inventor: Ronald A. Wilfert

Patent number: 4462039Abstract: This invention relates to a plastic identification card with an improved signature panel. There is a problem with existig credit cards in that the existing signature can be obscured by printing over with a patch of clay composition similar to that used to provide the original signature panel. A new signature can then be applied. This problem is overcome by providing a signature panel which is sandwiched between the core stock and a protective transparent film. The signature panel comprises a layer of chemicals reactive under the pressure of a signature to release a colored dye conforming with the signature.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 1982Date of Patent: July 24, 1984Assignee: British American Bank Note Inc.Inventors: Edward A.

Patent number: 4429015Abstract: Multi-ply laminae are provided which are suitable for use as tell-tale indicators for identification cards, credentials and the like. The laminae are post-laminated to a core layer bearing a photograph or similar information or indicia. Thereafter attempts to delaminate the card result in fibers being torn from a uniaxially oriented polyethylene or polypropylene layer of the laminae. Attempts to readhere the layers with adhesives result in tell-tale indicia in the form of the torn fibers which cannot be adequately realigned or adhered so as to be unnoticeable. Moreover, attempts to heat seal the card after tampering causes the oriented polymer to shrink and opacify resulting in additional tell-tale indicia of tampering. In addition, the core comprises heat seal surfaces upon which printing and other indicia is placed whereby any attempt to alter the printing or other indicia results in destruction of the card.Type: GrantFiled: April 1, 1982Date of Patent: January 31, 1984Assignee: American Can CompanyInventor: Nicholas Sheptak
