Abstract of the Disclosure A decorative molded article simulating an object of construction used in a house or similar building, such as door or window, is made from a plastic sheet with one surface having a printed pattern which corresponds to a pattern on the simulated object and wherein the surface of the plastic sheet is deformed to correspond to the surface of the simulated object where the printed pattern and deformations are interrelated to closely resemble surface characteristics of the simulated object such as color, grain and shading. The decorative molded article is formed by a method in which the pattern of the simulated object is successively printed onto the plastic sheet by print screens which have been artistically and/or photographically developed with the pattern. The decorative molded article is formed in an apparatus which has fixed upper and lower platens spaced from one another and a movable mold platen which is moved in and out of the space between the two fixed platens. The upper fixed platen has a heat bank and an inflatable seal around the perimeter of the heat bank in order to form a seal to allow a vacuum to be applied underneath the plastic sheet, and air pressure to be applied over the sheet. -22-
