[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A sealed self-contained photohardenable imaging assembly comprising:a first transparent polymeric film support;a second polymeric film support which may be opaque or transparent;an imaging layer disposed between said first transparent support and said second support, said imaging layer comprising a developer material and a plurality of microcapsules;a subbing layer disposed between said first transparent support and said imaging layer, said subbing including a polymer having chemical moieties which bond to said microcapsules; and an adhesive material disposed between said imaging layer and said second support;said microcapsules encapsulating a photohardenable composition containing a color precursor, a polyethylenically unsaturated compound, a cyanine dye/borate photoinitiator and a disulfide having the formula: [ STR 3 ] where X is selected from the group consisting of S and O; n represents 0 or 1; A represents the residue of the ring containing the N, C and X atoms, the ring containing five or six members and, in addition, said ring members may be fused to an aromatic ring; and R.sup.5 is an aromatic radical selected from the group consisting of (i) phenyl, (ii) benzothiazolyl, (iii) benzoxazolyl, (iv) tetrazolyl, (v) pyridinyl, (vi) pyrimidinyl, (vii) thiazolyl, (viii) oxazolyl, (ix) quinazolinyl, and (x) thiadiazolyl, wherein the imaging layer exhibits a residual stain of less than about 0.3 density units, wherein said microcapsules are melamine-formaldehyde microcapsules formed in the presence of pectin and said developer material is a phenolic resin essentially free of water soluble acid salts.
