Book Description

New York, New York, U.S.A.: Bradstreet Company, 1928 Full Title: BRADSTREET'S BOOK OF COMMERCIAL RATINGS - NEW HAMPSHIRE - SELECTED, UNDER SPECIFIC AGREEMENT, FROM THE GENERAL VOLUME, WHICH IS COPYRIGHTED. NAMES, ETC., OF BANKS AND TRUST COMPANIES WILL BE FOUND AT END OF STATE. JULY, 1929. This pocket-sized manual was intended for use by bankers, creditors, etc., to determine the credit-worthiness of New Hampshire individuals and businesses. It has 79+ pages of information, including a list of all the Bradstreet Company's American offices. It lists every business and a lot of individuals, giving their Bradstreet credit ratings. Also glued-in inside the back cover is a folded map of New Hampsire and Vermont - road map on one side, railroad map on the reverse. A fascinating document, expecially considering the timing: July 1929, just prior to the Wall Street crash. How many of these ratings remained the same in the following year's listings, I wonder? Geneologists and historians will find a wealth of information here. Book itself is a soft-bound, maroon leatherette-covered volume with onionskin pages for maximum portability. Binding is tight and firm. Front cover shows a couple of light bends (it actually did go in someone's pocket!). There are minor shelfwear and corner dings/bends. Map shows an open 3/4" tear near the bottom, where someone was careless in unfolding the map. Unique research tool! Inventory #BRA-544.. Soft Cover. Good/No Jacket. 7 3/4" x 4 1/4".
