The present invention provides a photothermographic material having, on at least one side of a support, an image forming layer including at least a photosensitive silver halide, a first non-photosensitive organic silver salt, a reducing agent, and a binder, and a non-photosensitive layer including a second non-photosensitive organic silver salt which is different from the first non-photosensitive organic silver salt, wherein particles of the second non-photosensitive organic silver salt have a mean equivalent circular diameter of from 0.03 .mu.m to 0.5 .mu.m. A photothermographic material, which exhibits improved color tone of developed silver images, improved resistance to damage from fingerprints, and high resistance to image defects, is provided.
