1970Best.-Nr. 5069Detroit 1970. Very good plus. 12pp. plus four-page section inserted at center. Original pictorial wrappers printed in blue stapled. Very minor wear. An unrecorded African-American business directory issued by the Booker T. Washington Business Association in Detroit. According to the introduction: "Booker T. Washington Business Association Detroit's oldest black business organization is proud to present the first of a series of Directories geared to support and encourage the development of more businesses within the Detroit area. This is your Directory and we urge you to begin today patronizing these black-owned businesses." The text of the directory is comprised of quarter-page advertisements for about forty said businesses ranging from automobile dealers to supermarkets according to the alphabetical index on the second page. Some of the ads are illustrated with portraits of the proprietors. The text also includes a four-page section titled "Membership Roster" inserted in the middle presumably listing the current members of the Booker T. Washington Business Association.

Best.-Nr. 63989Detroit: Executive Board of the Michigan Federation of Labor 1916. Octavo. Cloth-backed pictorial boards; 150pp; illus. Covers slightly rubbed with some trivial paper loss at board edges; internally complete clean and unmarked; Very Good. Though the title suggests this was a serial publication we find no evidence that it was produced in any other year. Publication statement on the title page reads: "Issued by the Executive Board in compliance with instructions from the last state convention held at Traverse City." A pictorial and statistical review of industrial activities in the principal municipalities of Michigan focusing of course on Detroit and its burgeoning automotive industry but also including many smaller manufacturing towns such as Muskegon Owosso Ishpeming Ludington etc. Includes a list of local subscribers following each section making us think this was intended as much as a commercial directory as a labor annual. Well-illustrated throughout with photographic text illustrations halftones. Despite commercial production values and a healthy list of subscribers the publication is apparently rare; not previously seen by us and we find no catalogued examples in OCLC. unknown
