WHY A BUYERS' GUIDE?


IT IS CUSTOMARY TO INCLUDE A BUYERS' GUIDE IN THE CITY DIRECTORY BECAUSE:


It gives business firms the opportunity to elaborate upon a description of their products and services impossible in the limited space of regular Alphabetical and Classified listings. * The Buyers' Guide is a necessary supplement to the regular listings; it is good City Directory information .. .
