Many of the listed directories are in hardbound covers as seen above. These were supplied to the phone company offices as reference books. Some have several counties bound together. All directories are grouped by decade from the 1950's through the 1990's. Most books are from the Maryland, Virginia and DC area. Many of the covers have a File Copy stamp on them, but not all, please ask if having a clean cover matters. All directories are in excellent condition.

What would we do without our telephones.....
Here I am chatting away....anyone that knows me, knows I love to talk as much as I live to shop! So began my love affair with the yellow pages.
Yes, I know it's a weird collection, but the old advertisements really are cool.
