Abstract

A lenticular sheet system having an air gap between a pair of superimposed lenticular sheets which does not diminish or attenuate the spacial optical effect produced by the superimposed lenticular sheets and which is made possible by coating both sides of one of the lenticular sheets with a transparent coating having a coefficient of refraction slightly different than the coefficient of refraction of that sheet.
