Copyright Office - The Labrary of Congress MOTION PICTURES. 1894-1912 ERRATA AND ADDENDA Page 1 71 The following lists of corrections and additions to Motion Pictures . 1894-1912 have been compiled by the staff of the Copyright Office from information gathered and generously contributed by Miss Eliz- abeth Franklin of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences during the course of twosununers' work on the paper print collec- tion of the Library of Congress. The corrections cover both typo- graphical errors and variances between information on the paper prints and in the record books of the office. Mr. Howard L. Walls was limited to the record books in making his original selection. Most of the additions consist of films not readily identifiable as such from the record book entries, since before 1912 motion pic- tures were registered simply as photographs.
