In one example the screen base is a metal plate, cylindrically curved about a horizontal axis, the plate being first polished and then ground to produce a series of vertical scratches. The plate is then incompletely sprayed a number of times with a lacquer so diluted, and sprayed from such a distance, that it remains in droplets on the plate. Each spraying covers about half of the plate. The screen may be of the transmission type, a transparent plastic sheet with scratches, being treated to form the lenticular elements. The screen is particularly adapted for use in a television receiver having a projection system comprising a concave mirror and a correcting plate. Specification 534,483 is referred to. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 refers to the use of a fusible substance sprayed to form the lenticular elements.
