Abstract
A transparent film member (10) for superimposing an icon (13) on individual film frames (12') of an exposable film strip (12) as the frames are exposed in a camera (7) is described. The transparent film member (10) is detachably or permanently secured to a film canister (11) containing the exposable film strip (12) and secured in such a manner as to position the transparent film member between an aperture of an exposure chamber (21) of a camera and the film strip (12) whereby the icon (13) may be transferred onto individual frames (12') as they are exposed to produce a composite image comprised of a subject (24) being photographed and the icon (13).
