Class A(cont'd)

Example

 

 

A pictorial filmstrip of eighty frames, thirty of which embody original text, has been pub­ lished with its own separate notice as a part of an audio­-visual kit. Practice: Request application on Form A, pointing out the possible limitations of registration in Class J. If the applicant nevertheless insists on Class J, register the claim on Form J.

2.

Class B. A "contribution to a periodical" may be an article, story, pictorial illustration, or other work first published in a periodical; a "periodical" is a magazine, news­paper, or similar work published at regular intervals of less than a year under the same general title. If such a contribution includes a substantial amount of text, or con­sists of many photographs, a single registration in Class B on Form BB is appropriate, subject to the requirements explained in Section 2.3.4.
