Title: Blackburn Directories
Post by: mwbabsi on Sunday 15 July 07 12:56 BST (UK)

Does anyone have access to the Blackburn Directories?
Would like to know if there are any WATTS entries listed in the 1960s.
Many thanks

Babs

Hi Babs,
Do you mean Trade Directories or Telephone Directories?

After World War II trade directories also faced growing competition from telephone directories, particularly for business and commercial use. The 1950s, in many ways, marked the end of large-scale directory production and usage.
