The 1953 city directory, equipped with 26,390 names of local adults and a new yellow ribbon, yesterday rolled off its Cincinnati presses on to Middletown office desks. In its first issue since 1951, the volume was as stuffed as ever. In fact, John Eicher, manager of the Williams Directory Co., which spends it time publishing the book, boasted that it contained 1,265 more business listings than its 1951 relative. List price for non-subscribers was swelled, too. The book was marked at $40, compared to 1951's $35 and 1947's $20. Five major departments are featured this year, including an alphabetical list of names, a directory of householders, a numerical telephone directory, a buyers' guide and a classified business directory...
