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.

This is no "guesswork" claim. It is based on a thorough, wellplanned "Telephone Coincidental Survey," covering about 3% of the TV set-owners. This is the FIRST survey ever made in this market giving information so complete. Full details of this survey — how it was carried on, the questions that were asked, the number of set-owners responding in each hour, and their answers — all these, and other important data, are available to you in our presentation of the Survey, sent at your request.
