About This Item
San Francisco: Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Co, 1940. Very good.. 36pp. Original printed wrappers, stapled. Light wear and soiling. Internally clean. A rare issue of this San Francisco phone directory published by the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company for the local Chinese community, printed almost entirely in Chinese aside from the front cover (which also bears the title in Chinese). The directory served the large but still somewhat isolated Chinese populations in the Bay Area, this issue with listings for both San Francisco and Oakland. We locate copies at Yale, UC Berkeley, and UC Davis.
