Source
weekday "TUESDAY"
Reasoning
The holiday revue Broadway Personalities played the Majestic with a New Year's Eve 11:15 show, Greetings of 1931 (scan 518; review scan 2109, 'headed for Manhattan shortly'); a research note puts its opening on Tuesday 30 December 1930.
30 December 1930
stated · doubtful
Why
pm-actor-533: pm-actor-533: Not printed on any cited scan; scan 2109's visible OCR shows no explicit date.
1930
stated · doubtful
Why
pm-actor-533: pm-actor-533: Typed stated but rests on a gallery caption text, not a printed date (decision 3B).
30 December 1930
stated · doubtful
Source
CWB article body naming the same revue and performers
Why
pm-actor-533: pm-actor-533: Node 4007 = scan 2109's OCR shows no printed date; only confirms it is the same clipping.
Reasoning
The event's own description already states this is a December 30, 1930 clipping naming Richman and Minevitch; this article's OCR body names the same revue ("Greetings of 1931" at the Majestic) and the same performers, so it is this clipping (or a reprint of it), now attached as a sourced witness for the first time.
c. December 1930
estimated · probable
Reasoning
Media 2109 presents the performance in the holiday revue Greetings of 1931, while the packet's prior same-witness audit identifies it as the December 1930 Majestic event. The month is therefore estimated at probable confidence.
31 December 1930
stated · doubtful
Why
pm-actor-533: pm-actor-533: Scan 518 prints NEW YEAR'S EVE and 'Greetings of 1931' but no 1930: the day is worked out, so estimated, not stated (decision 3B).
Reasoning
A New Year's Eve show billed as 'Greetings of 1931' can only fall on the night the new year is welcomed in, i.e. Dec 31, 1930. The ad's headliners (Harry Richman, Norma Terris, Jack Pearl) match 'Broadway Personalities' at the Majestic Theatre, Brooklyn, externally documented (Cool Wisdom Books chronology) as running Dec 28-30, 1930; this ad is the special 11:15pm New Year's Eve extension of that same run.
31 December 1930
estimated · probable
Reasoning
The advertisement names New Year's Eve at 11:15 and the revue Greetings of 1931; the New Year's Eve immediately greeting 1931 is 1930-12-31, an inference recorded as estimated rather than stated.
30 December 1930
estimated · probable
Source
weekday "TUESDAY"
Reasoning
Scan 2109 names the bill 'Greetings of 1931', a New Year's-into-1931 revue, so December 1930 not 1929 (refutes 20052/20055). Day 30 matches an external note's weekday (Tue) though not printed on a cited scan. (anchors: A005)
Show all 12 claims
1980
stated · refuted
Source
derived from the event's own title: "Amerique and Neville perform at the Majestic Theater (Broadway Personalities) - clipping 1980"
Reasoning
The event held NO date claim of any kind; its own title states 1980 (year precision, parsed as "year only"). ⚠ A title in this corpus is a DERIVED artefact — an earlier pass wrote it from the passage text — so this claim is title-derived and is marked as such rather than cited as a source document; the underlying text remains the real evidence and would supersede it. Confidence `probable`, never `certain`, for that reason. Precision is never inflated beyond the title's own wording. CALIBRATION (run v1.1/l1.4/titledate, against the 489 events that already hold an independent preferred date): day 96.1%, month 94.1% agreement. Titles naming a REFERENCE event rather than the event itself ("before", "after", "during the week of", "per ... lecture") are refused outright and never reach this write — reading an anchor as the date is the same laundering phase3b committed when it wrote telling dates onto events. || v1.1/l1.4/titledate-correct: REFUTED — written in error by my own run v1.1/l1.4/titledate. the number in this title is a CLIPPING/SCAN IDENTIFIER, not a year — the "Amerique and Neville perform" family carries one, and in several the word "clipping" immediately precedes it. Neville danced with Amerique in the late 1920s-30s, so every year my run took from this family is wrong, including the ones that happen to look plausible. This event held no date before that run, so refuting restores its true prior state (undated) rather than leaving a wrong date on display. The row is kept, not deleted, as the record of what the run did.
1929
estimated · refuted
Why
pm-actor-533: pm-actor-533: Refuted: scan 2109 names the bill 'Greetings of 1931', dating it to Dec 1930, not 1929.
Reasoning
Media 1980's metadata dates the clipping to 1929 and the article lists Amerique and Neville among the performers appearing at the Majestic that week. The OCR prints no year, so the event year is estimated at doubtful confidence.
c. 1929
estimated · refuted
Why
pm-actor-533: pm-actor-533: Refuted: 'Greetings of 1931' (scan 2109) places the same booking in Dec 1930, not 1929.
Reasoning
The clipping is a contemporaneous review of a 'brief Brooklyn run' just concluded/underway, not a retrospective, so it does date the actual performance. But the year itself is genuinely contested between two sources that both touch this corpus: the media's own low-confidence AI dating pass (1929) and the coolwisdombooks.com chronology (1930), and I found no third source to break the tie, so I am recording the corpus's own year (1929) at only 'doubtful' confidence rather than manufacturing false certainty either way.
