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.
CHARGES FOR EXPRESS, POSTAGE AND MISCELLANEOUS
45. Charges that arise from the shipment of film or accessories, and any other miscellaneous charges, such as telephone used by an exhibitor, or in his interest, are to be added to Film or Accessory Invoices, thereby eliminating the necessitty of making out a special invoice for miscellaneous charges. Charges for postage which were not billed on accessory invoices are to be taken from the SHIPPER'S POSTAGE BOOK while the express charges are kept in a RETURN EXPRESS BOOK and from there billed to the exhibitor. These records will be explained later.
A separate invoice (form 76) for miscellaneous items is to be prepared in the event that no film or accessory invoice is made out for an exhibitor. The fourth (pink) copy of such invoice is to be destroyed. The second and third copies are to be kept together for posting to the ledger and listing on FORM "B" which will be discussed later.
Charges for DAMAGED FILM, DELAYED SHIPMENTS, etc., are made up on invoice No. 76. In these cases the shipping department copy is destroyed.
SHIPPING
46. After the biller has made out four copies of the film invoice (form No. 76) and the bookkeeper has checked it as to the correctness of key number, release number, amount, etc., the fourth copy is turned over to the shipper who files it in his Bushnell 1 to 31 file, according to the date when shipment is to be made.
From this file the shipper takes all invoices for the dav and compares them with the DISTRIBUTION SHEET which he has received from the booker. It is the shipper's duty to see to it that no shipments are made that are listed on the distribution sheet for which he has not received the pink copy of an invoice, nor must there be any shipping ticket for an exhibitor without the corresponding entry on the distribution sheet.
47. The shipper must carefully observe the rule that no shipments are to be made from anything but the regular pink carbon copy of the film invoice. Any deviation from this rule might cause a loss of revenue on account of film shipped but not billed. Any differences must be taken up at once between shipper, booker and Bookkeeping Department, respectively.
