Catalogue- NORTH MEMPHIS COAL AND HARDWARE CO,
Memphis, TN. Sept 1931. "Monthly Bulletin: An Interesting
Message From A Reliable Coal & Hardware Merchant." This was the
introductory issue from this merchant. Independent merchants were encouraged
to do these "store papers" as they were called, as a way to increase
contact with their customer base. These efforts came about as an answer to the
mail order houses and the hated (by the merchants) mail order catalogue. Even
before the turn of the century, "wide awake" merchants were actively
publishing these little papers. This one is unique for several reasons and is
especially attractive, with two-color accents throughout.
It features back-to-school items, building materials, house wares,
stove supplies, tin goods, etc. Their slogan is typical of the times in which
it was written: "We're in a Black Business, But We Treat You White."
