We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
When forwarding papers to the Home Office use envelopes with printed address (469 Fifth Avenue, New York.) Please see to it that the envelope is not only well sealed, but also does not contain too many papers, as it may come apart while in transit.
Remember that serious delay is caused if insufficient postage is put on the mail, or by omission of the street address of the Home Office.
EXHIBITORS' POSTER ORDER
149. When exhibitors order their supply of accessories they should be requested to use the order form No. 82 or No. 316, enclosing check or poster coupon at the same time.
As the prices of posters and slides have been increased since form No. 316 was printed it will be necessary to change the form before sending to exhibitors. This should be done by a rubber stamp which will block out the old price and print the new one over it.
It may be advisable to send three copies of the above forms to the exhibitors at the same time when notice of exhibition date (form No. 247) is mailed to them.
ACCESSORY INVENTORY
150. We require a bi-weekly inventory of accessories on hand in the branches, segregated by release and kind of accessories. Form No. 138 (or revised form No. 321) is used for this purpose.
As posters arrive in the branches they should be numbered before they are put on the racks, starting with No. 1 at the bottom. Consequently, the top figure will show the quantity of any particular kind on hand. However, this method of taking stock will not be accurate if the poster clerk in filling an order should pull a sheet from the middle of the pile instead of taking the top one.
An inventory, in order to be of value to us, must be accurate, (counted and not estimated.) Two copies of the form are to be sent to the Home Office. They do not necessarily have to be typewritten, provided they are clear and legible.
REQUEST FOR REFUND
151. If a refund of a credit balance or contract payment is desired, use form No. 139 which is to be signed by both Manager and Cashier.
As far as possible, the name of the theatre owner should be given so that the check can be made payable to an in
