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.
the Copyright Office. These facts are indi- cated in the entries by the use of date alone for all published works and by the addition of the abbreviation Ic immediately preceding the date for all unpublished works. Registration number. Prior to January 1, 1900, all works were numbered in sequence as they were registered, and a new series of numbers was established at the beginning of each calendar year. In citing the number for any registration made during this period, the year date must, therefore, be given. To achieve brevity, however, the year date is not repeated in the entry in connection with the registration number, because the number im- mediately follows the full date in each entry. Beginning with January 1, 1900, the material received in the Copyright Office was divided for purposes of registration into classes desig- nated by letters of the alphabet. Three dif- ferent series of classes were used in chrono- logical sequence during the next 12 years; in consequence, the registration numbers of motion pictures registered as photographs in- cluded in this catalog are preceded by class designations as follows: January 1-December 31, 1900 D January 1, 1901-June 30, 1909 H July 1, 1909-January 23, 1913 J Sample Entries: THE AWKWARD MAN; or, OH!
