Holographic
and xographic magnetic note holder structures
Abstract
A magnetic note holder incorporates a hologram or xogram as the artwork of
choice. A standard note holder structure is disclosed which includes a clear
laminate adhered to the surface of the artwork, a section of stainless steel
tape adhered to the underside of the artwork, a double-sided tape tape adhered
to the underside of the stainless steel tape, and a section of magnetized
rubber sheet adhered to the underside of the double-sided tape. A base note
holder structure is disclosed which has no section of stainless steel tape. A
special note holder structure is disclosed which has two separate sections of
stainless steel tape.

Claims
I claim:
1. A magnetic note holder structure for displaying a hologram or xogram,
comprising:
a structurally two-dimensional holograhic or xographic artform of choice;
a sheet section of clear acrylic laminate adhered to the surface of said
halographic or xographic artwork of choice;
a sheet section of stainless steel tape adhered to the underside of said
holographic or xographic artwork of choice;
a sheet section of double-sided tape adhered to the underside of said sheet
section of stainless steel tape; and
a section of rubberized, magnetized sheet adhered to the underside of said
sheet section of double-sided tape.
Description
This invention relates to customized magnetic note holders and, more
particularly, relates to magnetic note holders utilizing holographic or
xographic artwork.
In a previous Statutory Invention Registration, No. H46, published Apr. 1,
1986, "Process Sequence For Fabricating Durable, Personalized Magnetic
Note Holders", the various benefits of making and using magnetic note
holders are described. In brief, magnetic note holders are useful objects which
allow a person to create a striking visual appeal and to achieve a sense of
accomplishment. Such magnetic note holders simulate three-dimensional objects
in a two dimensional medium. Various prior art processes for fabricating such
magnetic note holders are known. These include processes which require the use
of sophisticated process steps or specialized tools [See G. M. Muzik,
"Graphic Laminate And Method of Making Same", U.S. Pat. No.
4,197,151] and products aimed at commercial rather than personal applications
[See, e.g., L. Stern, "Advertising And Promotional Display
Materials", U.S. Pat. No. 4,310,978 and R. W. Mattson, "Magnetic
Badge Assembly", U.S. Pat. No. 4,236,331]. And such prior art processes
produced products having...
