History Lesson

So I was doing some digging in our archives at work to try and find some video from the early 70's (yes I realize it would be film at that age but stay with me). I enter into this locked room with beta tapes from floor to ceiling, round the corner under the stairs to this stack of card catalogues. They're not the cool old wooden ones like you'd see at the library, but they resemble miniature metal file cabinets. While rifling through the individual cards trying to understand just how stories were labled and filed nearly 40 years ago, I stumbled across a few interesting cards that you'll see below.

But the next one was quite surprising, especially how it was labled.
A closer look.

But then found it quite ironic that the next drawer I pulled out had this card.
