An electric display device of the type wherein a liquid is disposed in a
space defined by a substrate, a spacer disposed on the substrate, and a
sealing film disposed on an upper end portion of the spacer is produced
through a process including a step of disposing a sealing film precursor,
comprising a polymerizable compound, supported by a supporting member on
both an exposed surface of the liquid and the upper end portion and at
least a part of the side portion of the spacer in a state that the liquid
is filled between adjacent spacers, and a step of polymerizing the
polymerizable compound to form the sealing film.
