                  Photographic element on a polymeric substrate with novel subbing layer | 
               
            
 
         (57) A radiation sensitive photographic element comprising a substrate with at least one
            polymeric surface and at least one photographic emulsion over the polymeric surface.
            The polymeric surface has adhered thereto a continuous gelled network or inorganic
            particles which provides a subbing layer having the potential for antistatic properties,
            antihalation properties and good coatability.
