Claims
- 1. Destructible carbon paper duplicating sheet to be used for making authorized copies and thereafter to be rendered uncopyable by being pulled apart manually without soiling the hands of the puller, which comprise:
- a tissue paper base sheet;
- a plurality of filament strands embedded in and distributed throughout said paper base sheet, said filament strands being arranged in a repetitive pattern of alternating angular relationship to the edges of said paper sheet;
- duplicating ink transfer layer substantially coating one surface of said paper sheet; and
- oppositely disposed means for gripping the destructible carbon paper sheet with the thumb and fingers of both hands, said gripping means being devoid of said ink transfer layer so that hands are unsoiled when the carbon paper sheet is pulled apart to be rendered unusable.
- 2. Destructible carbon paper sheet as defined in claim 1, wherein said plurality of filament strands are positioned uniformly throughout said paper base sheet in a repetitively zig-zag pattern.
- 3. Destructible carbon paper sheet as defined in claim 1, wherein said plurality of filament strands are positioned uniformly throughout said paper base sheet in a repetitively sinusoidal wave pattern.
- 4. Destructible carbon paper sheet as defined in claim 1, wherein said plurality of filament strands are positioned uniformly throughout said paper base sheet in a repetitively criss-crossing mesh pattern, said filament strands being attached to each other at each crossing.
- 5. Destructible carbon paper sheet in accordance with claim 1, wherein said means for gripping the carbon paper sheet is a pair of thumb-and-finger accommodating areas free of ink and positioned at opposite edges of said paper base sheet.
- 6. Destructible carbon paper sheet in accordance with claim 1, wherein said means for gripping the carbon paper sheet is a pair of thumb-and-finger-accommodating projections extending outwardly from opposite edges of said paper base sheet.
- 7. Destructible carbon paper sheet in accordance with claim 1, further comprising said paper base sheet being selectively perforated.
- 8. Destructible carbon paper sheet as defined in claim 7, wherein said perforations are located in areas of the carbon paper sheet which will receive the impression of a user's signature and identifying indicia.
- 9. Destructible carbon paper sheet as defined in claim 7, wherein said perforations flank and follow at least some of said filaments embedded in said paper base sheet.
