Abstract:
A latent fingerprint lifting and recordation device of the type which provides a permanent and official fingerprint document, said device comprising:a flexible transparent latent fingerprint lifting sheet having one adhesive surface thereof;an opaque flexible frame having an open central area and substantially similar In size and shape to that of, and adhered in generally coextensive fashion on one surf thereof, to said fingerprint lifting sheet, a majority of said adhesive surface exposable and unattached over said open central area for lifting a latent fingerprint;a protective cover positioned against, and similar in size and shape to, that of said frame and releasably adhered against said adhesive surface through said open central area;whereby, when said fingerprint lifting sheet with said frame adhesively attached thereto are removed from said cover, an imaged latent fingerprint may be lifted and recorded on said adhesive surface, the latent fingerprint thereafter protectively sandwiched for viewing through said fingerprint lifting sheet when said cover is adhesively reattached to said adhesive surface to form a permanent fingerprint document;said frame included scale measurement indicia printed thereon positioned adjacent said open central area for size comparison to a latent fingerprint on said fingerprint lifting sheet.
