ABSTRACT:
Flexible composite material is provided upon which a facsimile message containing both confidential and nonconfidential information can be recorded. In general, the composite material comprises a recording layer and a cover layer. The recording layer has a predetermined width and a longitudinal extent which varies in length consistent with the length of the recorded message. The cover layer is disposed over the recording layer to define a confidential message recording area and at least one non-confidential message recording area. Both message recording areas extend along the longitudinal extent of the recording layer. The cover layer permits recording upon the non-confidential area and confidential area, while concealing the confidential message prior to the cover's removal. Preferably, a releasable adhesive layer is disposed over the confidential message area, so as to releasably secure the cover layer to the recording layer without adversely affecting the integrity or functioning of the confidential recording area. In practice, the adhesive layer is formed as spaced-apart strips and includes perforation lines formed in the cover layer. These perforation lines provide a visual indication that the cover layer had been removed or tampered with. According to another aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of delivering a hard copy of a confidential message. The method involves utilization of a facsimile data communication system including at least one transmitter and at least one receiver operably associated with a recording means capable of utilizing the flexible composite of the present invention.
