THIS IS A GREAT READ! ITS A 1932 TELEPHONE ALMANAC COMPLETELY FILLED WITH THE HISTORY OF HOW AND WHEN THE BELL SYSTEM EVOLVED AS SOCIETY GREW AND NEEDED MORE AND MORE WAYS TO CONNECT. THIS BOOK HAS ON NEARLY EVERY PAGE A PICTURE OF SOME IMPORTANT HISTORICAL EVENT IN OUR NATIONS HISTORY PLUS EACH MONTH OF 1932 IS HIGHLIGHTED FOR IMPORTANT HAPPENINGS THAT MONTH. AT THE IME THIS ALMANAC WAS PRINTED IN WAS LOCATED AT 195 BROADWAY, NEW YORK AND WAS NAMED 'AMERICAN TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY. THE CONDITION IS VERY GOOD AND EXCEPT FOR A FEW TINY SCUFFS THIS ALMANAC HAS NO TEARS,WRITING, CREASES OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. IT MEASURES 10 INCHES TALL X 7 INCHES WIDE AND IS SURROUNDED BY THE SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC. THE BINDING IS NICE AND SNUG, THE STAPLES ARE NOT RUSTED AND THE PAGES ARE SOFT AND EASY TO READ. FOR SOME REASON THE PGS ARE NOT NUMBERED. THIS IS A TOTALLY INTERESTING BOOK...IT TELLS ABOUT THE STOCK MKT. , HOW MANY PHONES ARE OUT THERE IN '32 ETC.; ASK ANYTHING YOU LIKE AND THANKS FOR LOOKING! P.S. I SHOULD ADD THAT THE BELL SYSTEM SAID THIS BOOK WAS PRINTED FOR 'BELL SSYFTEM TELEPHONE SUBFCRIBERS'...THATS HOW THEY SPELLED 75 YEARS AGO!
