SUSPENDED FILING SYSTEM
NO LOST LETTERS
QUICK REFERENCE

The first ring to untice about this system is the instant and complete visibility of all the names or titles at a glance directly the drawer is opened.
The second, that the framework or cradle from which the folders are suspended drops straight into any ordinary quarto or foolscap filing drawer, so that its installation entails no scrapping of present filing cabinets al consequently no needless expense.
Thirdly, the top channels on which the titles are indexed do not encroach upon the filing space or reduce the capucity of the drawer far papers.
