Abstract
A material with holographic and non-holographic displayable indicia thereupon has an embossed holographic microtexture upon a surface thereof for forming a reflection hologram and resulting in an associated visible holographic pattern. A non-holographic pattern is primed with a priming press upon the embossed holographic microtexture at a predetermined orientation relative to the holographic pattern. The pattern may have several colors primed in registration and in registration with the holographic pattern which may include 2D and 3D indicia. A reflective coating overlies the microtexture and the primed pattern.
