ABSTRACT:
An impression of a limb, for example, a foot, can be taken, e.g. for mail order or catalog sales and shoes, shoe inserts and the like without trying on, utilizing a transparent pouch, one inner wall of which has an adhesive layer separated by a silicone foil from a single-use carbon-paper sheet which is attached to a cover sheet within the pouch. Upon withdrawal of the silicone-coated layer, the foot can be pressed against the other wall of the pouch and the cover sheet to transfer carbon coating from the carbon-paper sheet to the adhesive whereupon the cover sheet and single-use carbon-paper sheet can be extracted from the pouch. The transferred imprint on the adhesive layer is protected within the pouch.
