Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Thompson Red Book on Advertising: A Register of Representative Organs and How to Use Them
The Chicago offices are commodiously situ ated in the enormous office building, quaintly called The Rookery, which stands on the corner of La Salle and Adams Streets, in the center of Chicago's financial district, and convenient to all street and steam transportation lines.
The Boston offices are at 31 Milk Street, nearly opposite the famous Old South Church, and are on historic ground. Benjamin Franklin's father lived in this immediate locality when the printer and philosopher was born.
There are three views from the New York office windows that are always enjoyed by visiting customers. The location is in a large breathing spot that, despite the noise and uproar of passing cars, general traffic and the ever-present shouting newsboy, is far enough away from other buildings to give an ever varying scene of life.
To the west. Across Park Row, is the government building, with the United States Courts and the Post Office, where the busy officials are constantly despatching tons of mail matter day and night, by pneumatic tubes, cable-cars and wagons. The New York Times Building alone furnishes over a ton of mail a day.
