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 . EXTENDED
