Hi Diana, It is known as a paper caption sticker strip that includes the still number, the title, studio, and a two sentence publicity blurb. In the March 2004 issue of MCW there is a great article about still collecting by Freddie Poe. Hope this helps. Lenny

I tend to call it a "publicity blurb" -which I know is not the "official" name...I have heard it called a "snipe".....but "in the business", so to speak, what is it really known as?
