Abstract

An identification device in the form of a security card or anti-counterfeiting label which comprises a hologram visible by reflection in incident natural light, the film emulsion having been permanently deformed so that the interference fringe spacings differ from those in a non-deformed emulsion, thereby to change from one part of the hologram to another the wavelength of light which is visible by reflection from the hologram.
