Yellow Pages?

Who has a copy of the Brooklyn or Manhattan yellow pages laying around they don't need?

I have a professor who wants us to do a 100 page book using only that as our source in less than a week's time. I asked where to get one, he said he didn't know and suggested calling Verizon. Verizon's call center in Nevada could maybe have one mailed out for $36 to get to my place in Jersey by Saturday, maybe. So I lay myself at your feet, can I have your phonebook? I will very happily pick it up.

I can't help you with a book, but definitely try the public libraries! They tend to have plenty of phonebooks in the reference areas (at least they used to).

And smack your prof for giving you an assignment like that. =P

But I'm a good little library customer & don't tear up the materials! Otherwise, I'd just have stolen one by now. :P

I'm just curious what sort of assignment that is.

It's for communication design; his explination was that the restrictions will force us to make snap decisions on layouts.

If for whatever reason the other person's phone book doesn't pan out, I have one, too, that (with the advent of the internet) doesn't get used. In Crown Heights, Brooklyn.

Yellow Pages Ad design

I'd be happy to give you a copy of the ebook I wrote on Yellow Pages ad design.

Ringing Up Profits deals with all sorts of elements that affect the likelihood that someone seeing the YP ad (and believe it or not, the books are heavily used) will contact the advertiser.

Send me an email to:

Dick (at) ypcommando.com

good luck with the project.

Re: Yellow Pages Ad design

Thanks, but that's not what I was looking for.
