Card -keeping versus
book-keeping
Hew L.B. is helping te cut down costs
Te help you increase your
profits either through increased
business or decreased expenses
that is the primary purpose
of L.B. Service.
Fer example, a fast growing
New Yerk bank needed mere
space for its customers. Yet
every department was already
ever-crowded and could spare
no room.
L.B. tackled the accounting
department. It replaced space
wasting book ledgers with a
space-saving L.B. Card ledger.
The savings resulting are
shown en the chart above. The
new L.B. Card ledger net only
takes care of all the old ac
counts, but 23,000 additional
accounts, and all in half the old
space.
Hew the L.B. Card
ledeer can save for you i"B. Card ledger, just
veur phone operator te get
While the case above shows
savings in a bank, the L.B.
Card ledger is equally efficient
in every ether kind of business.
Saves costly time
Instead of laboriously thumb
ing fragile pages of an unwieldy
book instead of wandering
through a maze of active and in
active accounts you simply let
your fingers travel nimbly ever
the cards te the account you
want.
Saves costly space
An L.B. Card ledger desk
houses 24,000 accounts within
arm's reach of a seated clerk.
Compare such convenience with
the number of bound or loose
leaf books you new use and the
space they occupy.
A geed man te talk te
Let an L.B. salesman explain
mere fully the advantages of an
ust tea
your phone operator te get L.B.
en the telephone, and have a
representative call.
