Abstract
In production of a credit card or other magnetically encodable articles, a thermoplastic surface laminate layer is thermally tacked to a core stock layer and a magnetically encodable stripe is printed, for example, silk screened, on the laminate-core stock assembly. The resulting assembly is laminated to provide a smooth magnetic stripe having minimal distortion.
