Simultaneous X-ray images in the hard (20-40 keV) and softer (6.5-15 keV) energy ranges of an impulsive solar X-ray burst associated with a flare near the solar west limb are presented. These were obtained with the hard X-ray telescope on the Hinotori spacecraft. The burst was made up of an impulsive component having a hard spectrum and a thermal component having a peak temperature of 2.8 x 10 to the 7th K. The hard X-ray image for the impulsive component is an extended single source elongated along the solar limb; it extends from the two-ribbon H-alpha flare to 10,000 km above the limb. The centroid of this source image is located about 10 + or - 5 arcsec above the neutral line. The corresponding softer X-ray image is compact and located near the centroid of the hard X-ray image.
