A display in which images can be selectively presented to a viewer, is formed by providing a transparent substrate; forming a transparent, electrically conductive coating over the transparent substrate; forming a light modulating layer including liquid crystal material in a polymer binder over the transparent, electrically conductive layer; forming by directly depositing conductive material in an image wise pattern over the light modulating layer to provide viewable and conductive images, the light modulating layer being effective in a first condition to prevent the viewing of the viewable and conductive images and in a second condition to permit the viewing of the viewable and conductive images. Electrical connection is made so that an electrical field can be applied across selected ones of such viewable and conductive images and the transparent, electrically conductive layer to cause the light modulating layer underlying the selected ones of the viewable and conductive images to change from the first condition to the second condition so as to present such viewable and conductive images for viewing to the viewer.
