CONTAINING
An Alphabetical List of Business Firms and Private Citizens; a Directory of the City and County Officers, Churches, Public and Private Schools, Benevolent, Literary, and other Associations, Banks, Incorporated Institutions, etc
AND A COMPLETE CLASSIFIED BUSINESS DIRECTORY
A Correct Map and an Improved Street and Avenue Guide of the City
SAN FRANCISCO COMPILED AND PUBLISHED BY H. S. CROCKER COMPANY 215, 217, 219 BUSH STREET
Entered according to Act of Congress in the year 1896, by H. S. CROCKER COMPANY,
in the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington, D. C.
INTRODUCTORY.
N PLACING this, the first volume of the CROCKER-LANGLEY SAN FRANCISCO DIRECTORY, in the hands of its patrons, the publishers do so confident that it will meet the requirements of a large portion of the public, and are satisfied to let it rest on its merits as a work of its class, feeling certain that no more appropriate introduction could be offered than the assurance that nothing has been neglected on their part to secure the utmost thoroughness and accuracy.
Few people realize what a great task a Directory maker undertakes. The work, in its completed form, bears little evidence of the tremendous amount of detail the work requires. There is no class of publication which involves in the production more labor, care and preparation than the collecting, compiling and printing of material for a Directory, yet this fact is, by many, little considered.
This work is as nearly perfect as the most unceasing vigilance can make it. We wish to say it is impossible to produce a Directory of a city of the size of San Francisco which is absolutely correct.
Canvassers meet with almost insurmountable difficulties. Addresses right to-day are wrong to-morrow, on account of removals. Many persons, whose judgment should teach them the folly of such a course, are reluctant and careless in giving information ; some refuse to give it entirely, and others give wrong addresses for obvious reasons,-to avoid jury duty, creditors, taxation, etc.
The Street Guide is compiled entirely from reliable and authentic sources, and, owing to the many changes lately made by the Supervisors in the names of small streets, we have deemed it advisable to give both the old and new names of such streets and alleys.
Our Business Directory has been very carefully compiled, and we think we have succeeded in producing one that contains but very few errors, if any at all.
We have carefully compiled and engraved for this Directory the latest and most complete map of San Francisco City and County that has ever been issued. It will be found especially valuable for reference as to the location of Streets, Parks and Public Places. It also contains the Street Car system of this city, one of the most elaborate and exhaustive ones in the United States. A glance at this map will show how well supplied the inhabitants of this city are in the matter of transportation.
Our Directory Library contains Directories of all cities in the United States and Canada, for free use of our patrons. In addition to the benefits which our citizens derive from this valuable library and exchange system, which places the CROCKER-LANGLEY SAN FRANCISCO DIREC- TORY in all the Directory Libraries in the country, it serves as an excellent advertisement for a prosperous city; for no other publication can convey such an idea of the city and its growth ; its people, with their trades and professions; its schools, churches, banks, railroads, etc., and its various institutions and organizations.
Sincere thanks are tendered those who, by their patronage and support, have materially aided the publishers in their work, and also to those who kindly gave the correct information required for this volume.
In conclusion, the publishers will say that nothing shall be wanting on their part to maintain the high standard already obtained, and they confidently hope to meet with the recognition the work deserves.
