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

OUT OF SIGHT! OUT OF MIND! OUT OF BUSINESS!


The importance of keeping firm and product names in the public eye is recognized by all business men. It is astonishing to see how a firm or prod- uct, however meritorious, will slip into the limbo of the forgotten if not persistently advertised.


The City Directory is the natural medium for keeping a business or product name in the spotlight. Insist on being well represented in its pages.
