A package for containing strips of photographic film negatives comprises a cover member having positive images reproduced on its cover of the contained negatives. The cover is folded to form front and rear panels, the lower portion of the rear panel also being folded to form a front-facing flap. The lower edge of the front panel is insertable between the flap and the adjacent portion of the rear panel to secure the package in a closed configuration, similar to a book of safety matches. A sheet of longitudinal, hollow sleeves, connected at their lateral edges and fastened to the cover's inner surface between the flap and the lower portion of the rear panel, for holding the film strips.
A film package comprises a film sheet having a series of images recorded on one side of the film sheet and a non-image area on the same side, an index print sheet having a series of pictures printed on one side of the index print sheet which match the series of images recorded on the film sheet and a non-picture area on the same side of the index print sheet in the same relative location as the non-image area on the film sheet and being sized to permit the film sheet to be placed over the non-picture area without covering any of the pictures, and a holder on the non-picture area of the index print sheet for releasably securing the film sheet to the index print sheet.
5546155 - DP bag - Owned by Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd. (Kanagawa,JP)
A DP bag having a bag main body which accommodates a developed film and an image display member onto which all of the images of the developed film are recorded together with image specifying marks. Because the images recorded onto the film can be easily viewed at a glance by simply looking at the image display member of the DP bag, it is easier to request prints from the film. Further, because the number of structural members of the DP bag is less than a case in which prints, onto which the contents of the photographs are printed, and the DP bag are provided separately, the DP bag is more resource saving.

A film archival storage holder comprises base and cover sheets in a laminar page configuration including a plurality of pockets formed with bonding lines for holding the film. The pockets have an opening at one end accessed through a slit in the cover sheet for placing the film within the pocket and a smaller opening at the other end for accessing the pocket and maneuvering the film into a desired position. The smaller opening prevents the film from exiting the pocket. A flap is formed between the slit and another bonding line parallel to the slit. Once in the pocket, the film is maneuvered under the flap for locking the film within the pocket. The film can be positioned between the slit and the smaller opening and the film image with unobscured view which is especially useful when making contact prints from negative film placed in the pockets. Negative film in strips of any length can be stored and maneuvered into a predetermined position for storing or exposing. Punched holes and channels are formed for storage of the holder within a binder or a hanging file.
