ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are a thermally transferable image protective sheet and a method for protective layer formation that can provide a protective layer which can protect an image of a record produced by a nonsilver photographic color hard copy recording method, can impart lightfastness and other properties to the record, and can realize a record having a glossy impression comparable to silver salt photographs. The thermally transferable image protective sheet comprises a support and a thermally transferable resin layer having a single-layer or multilayer structure stacked on the support so as to be separable from the support. The thermally transferable image protective sheet has been constructed so that, when the thermally transferable image protective sheet is put on top of a print so as for the thermally transferable resin layer to be brought into contact with an image portion in the print and the thermally transferable resin layer is thermally transferred to cover at least the image portion of the print followed by the separation of the support from the thermally transferable image protective sheet to form a thermally transferred resin layer on the surface of the print, the surface of the thermally transferred resin layer on the print has a specular glossiness of not less than 60% as measured at an angle of incidence of 20 degrees according to JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards) Z 8741.
