letters 3 are folded on the body portion 1,
the edge 10 lapping as far over as the line
11 and an impression sheet being placed be-
tween the letters and the body portion 1 so
that the writing will be transmitted to the
body portion 1 in the respective columns of
payee or " drawn on " and " amount." The
numbers of the letters will register with the
numbers on the body portion 1. The par-
ties to whom the collections are sent are not
interested in the ownership of the items of
collection. For this reason the letter sheets
are not extended over the column for entry
of the owners. Thus a complete record of
all matters is kept on the sheets 1. These
sheets may be perforated and bound in
volumes for permanent record.
The paper may be perforated along the
dotted lines so that the letters may be easily
detached. The sheets are prepared for use
on typewriters, but they are equally adapted
for pen or pencil. If there are more items
than can be entered on one letter, the col-
umns can be extended as far down as nec-
essary. By printing the words " To,"
" On," and " Amount " in light face type
and making the lines between the vertical
lines 7 light, the words and the lines will
not materially interfere with the entries of
the collection items. Thus the addressing
space can be utilized for the address and
also for entries of items if more space than
one letter sheet is needed. The forms are
adapted for use on typewriters with tab-
ulating attachments, and for use on those
equipped with adding devices. These formsfollowing each other, the typewritist is en-
abled to print the total of one letter and
thus clear the adding machine and proceed
with the next letter. The main body por- 40
tion receives all the entries made on the let-
ters so that the amounts of the letters may
be totaled on the body portion which is to
be filed for permanent record.
Having fully described my invention, 45
what I claim as new and desire to secure by
Letters Patent, is,-
A collection and recorder sheet compris-
ing a main body portion having ruled lines
forming spaces for making entries thereon 50
and a plurality of detachable portions, each
detachable portion having a letter of advice
printed thereon, ruled lines forming ver-
tical columns adapted to register with a
portion of the spaces on said body portion 55
when folded thereon, and having ruled
lines thereon forming an addressing space
extending across said columns, the lines of
said addressing space included between the
column lines and the lines of said columns 60
included between the addressing space lines
being lightly ruled with relation to. the lines
on the remaining portion of the said de-
tachable portion of which they constitute a
continuation.
In testimony whereof, I set my hand in
the presence of two witnesses, this first day
of May, 1909.
