Abstract

A composite film pack and image storage and retrieval system includes inversely nesting inner and outer envelopes, with a disk film record enclosed within both. For photographic exposure purposes, the inner envelope is at least partially withdrawn and the disk is provided with suitable exposure to apply the sequential images thereto. Thereupon, the inner envelope is reinserted for secure transit of the disk to a development station. Upon development, the inner envelope may be discarded and the outer envelope foreshortened and utilized as a permanent storage and display vehicle.
