Today, I received a phone book with my mail. A hard copy. Yellow pages and all.
I wasn't even aware that was still a thing.

"Map showing location of interesting places"
(From The Flow of Time in the Connecticut Valley, by two geologists, George Bain and Howard Meyerhoff, originally published in 1942, republished in 1976)
These include an asbestos mine, several lead mines, and Mt. Sugarloaf, among other items.
