(A) In addition to the book provided for in § 112.26, every pawn broker, at the time of receiving any article in the conduct of his or her business, shall place a description of the article or things pledged upon the front side of a blank form card, three inches by five inches in size, which card shall be provided by the pawnbroker. The description to be given of such article shall be such description as may be called for by the blank form on such card. The pawnbroker shall fill in such other blank spaces as may appear on the front side of such blank card with the date as is requested by the blank space. A separate card shall be provided and used for each article pledged, received or taken.
(B) On the back of each blank form card there shall be written by the pledger, in his or her own handwriting, his or her name and address and such pledger shall also reproduce thereon his or her right thumb print at the place indicated therefore on the back of such card. In the event the right thumb is amputated, then such other fingerprint as required by the pawnbroker shall be taken and such fingerprint fully described and designated upon the card. This thumb print shall be reproduced and taken in the usually approved manner and shall not be blurred or obliterated. The pawnbroker shall then fill in a description of the party so pledging or leaving any such article as the remaining spaces on the back side of such blank form card may be called for.
