ABSTRACT:
A portfolio or desk folder is formed from a flexible leather or synthetic leather cover member forming front and back covers, two generally rectangular stiffening elements, an interior liner and a flap forming a pocket. The cover member, liner and flap are bonded and/or sewn together around the periphery of the portfolio to secure the stiffening members spaced apart from each other with a spine formed therebetween. A generally rectangular window is formed in the front cover and a fabric inlay is secured to the cover member around the periphery of the window. The inlay preferably includes a multi-color image formed thereon by transferring the image from an image source to a transfer sheet by way of a multi-color photocopier and transferring the image from the transfer sheet to the inlay prior to insertion of the inlay in the window. Portfolios with ornamental images of a wide variety may be fabricated.
