In contrast to the usual representations of of the Poincar\'e group of finite
spin or helicity the Wigner representations of mass zero and infinite spin are
known to be incompatible with pointlike localized quantum fields. We present
here a construction of quantum fields associated with these representations
that are localized in semi-infinite, space-like strings. The construction is
based on concepts outside the realm of Lagrangian quantization with the
potential for further applications.Comment: References, some text and an appendix adde
