Abstract
A carrier sheet with an integrated card and preferably, but not exclusively, a magnetic strip card is described. The sheet contains printed information which is in part card information printed at a predetermined location on a front face of a carrier sheet in a card region thereof and oriented to be disposed on an outer surface of the front and a rear card panel of the card to be formed. The siliconized liner patch, containing a pressure-sensitive adhesive, is laminated on the back surface of the carrier sheet and disposed to extend over the card region. A face patch of clear poly material containing a magnetic strip is immovably secured over the card region on the front face of the paper carrier sheet. A die cut delineates card contour panels and a straight fold line separates the panel whereby they may be folded together when detached from the carrier sheet with the pressure-sensitive adhesive of the liner being transferred to the rear surface of the panels so that the panels can be folded together with their rear surface stuck together. The method of manufacture and a method of use is also described herein.
