Data storage and retrieval playback apparatus for a still image receiver

A method for retrieving stored data relating to a still image comprising:

• providing an image receiver medium having fixed visible indicia and a transponder attached to the image receiver medium and the transponder including:
• (a) an antenna for receiving and sending signals, the receiving signals including a read signal,
• (b) a memory for storing address information for accessing a site on a communications network external to the image receiver medium the communications network containing data relating to the still image,
• (c) a processor and circuitry connected to the memory and the antenna for retrieving the address information from the memory and outputting an output signal including the address information over the antenna when a read signal is received;
• and
• providing a transceiver including an antenna and outputting the read signal from the transceiver to the transponder and receiving the output signal from the transponder;
• wherein the transceiver includes an antenna that outputs the read signal to the transponder and receives the output signal from the transponder and further wherein the antenna of the transponder receives a radio frequency signal that powers the transducer and
• wherein the transceiver is connected to a computing device including a processor and circuitry that retrieves the address information from the transceiver and executes a program which accesses the data relating to the still image over the communication network and outputs all or a selected portion of the data in a predetermined format.
