PREFACE.

In presenting this little book to our friends, we wish to offer a few words of explanation. Many Directories have been commenced, but none ever published. We have taken great care to procure the addresses of every prominent dealer in the United States, and we think that few have been omitted. Of course, where dealers are constantly starting business, and others retiring, to produce a complete Directory would be impossible, but we have taken every measure to make the work as perfect as possible.

L. FRANK BAUM,
WM. NORRIS,
H. C. BAUM.

Explanation.

Those names prefixed thus (*) are known to us to be reliable. Those thus (†), deal principally in counterfeits. Those thus (‡), are not reliable.

Note.—Mr. S. A. Taylor,† 81 Washington Street, Boston, is a dealer, but does not want his name included in this work, so we omit him.
