Object
Roosevelt Room Appointment Slip
A small, rectangular paper appointment slip—pocket‑sized and thin, likely printed or hand‑written with a single timeslot and a name. Edges may be soft from handling and the paper can crease where staff fold or tuck it into folders. Characters accept or glance at the slip to confirm scheduled access; a staff hand passes slips between aides and uses them to call attendees forward, making the slip an immediately practical token of who gains entry to a meeting.

Purpose
To record and communicate a single scheduled appointment time or brief meeting slot and to distribute that scheduling information to staff and attendees for orderly access control.
Significance
Acts as a logistical device that enforces the meeting order and staff access hierarchy; by allocating who is seen and when, the slip helps translate administrative procedure into dramatic stakes—structuring movement, attention, and the momentary exclusions that can trigger moral or political decisions.
