    I would think you can just call up an order them.
    if that don't work. library and xrox machine.

    if that don't work, fivver it and pay people 5-10 bucks to send u there
    phone book

    edit --

    How bout make a signature here in warrior forum and say... Donate your phone book to me

    or sell me you phone book.

    YES, physical yellow page books are a goldmine for offline lead generation. You can look at the larger display ads in the book to see who's spending money. I won't work with client that either don't or are not willing to budget for marketing purposes.

    Online yellow pages are fine for a scraper tool and general cold calling but the phone books give you a bigger picture of who are the players in the offline niches.
