FACTS !!


ABOUT CITY DIRECTORY CIRCULATION


The true value of advertising circulation is circulation consulted - "User Circulation."


To be exact by actual survey in twenty-four average American cities, by actual count, each city Directory averaged three and one-half consultations for each business day.


To be conservative we will eliminate the sixty Sundays and Holi- days when no tests were made.


For every thousand Directories sold there is an average of three and one-half daily consultations for each book for three hundred and five days, therefore -


1000 x 32 x 305 = 1,067,500


Consultations or "User Circulation"


The City Directory offers the most Specific Point of Contact Advertising Known
