In age, I am at the upper end of the Boomers. I don't live with my lap top on 24-7 and I'm not plugged into the cyber information circuit at all times with my cell phone for info. If I'm writing a letter (yes, I actually do write and place them into envelopes) or am paying a bill by check (how quaint), it drives me batty to not have an up-to-date written zipcode book! Try to find one! The local Post Office had one several years old and it was just for specific areas (and was poorly written and organized). The young kids who seem to be putting the world together expect everyone to be a robot and access info electronically as they would. When I saw the Arrow Zip Code Directory I was suprised and immediately ordered it. Even though the book had a little age to it, I couldn't be more happier. It is for me and, I suspect, many others, easier than waiting for a computer to clear for the zip code. It's easy to pick-out which zipcode, out of multible zipcodes in an area, is the one to use. Besides, it's nice to have an information tool you can actually feel with your fingers and doesn't feel like plastic. This came from Texas Books. They were fast and courteous. They also were interested enough in my satisfaction to contact me to see if the book had arrived and if I was pleased with the purchase. If that's not Retro in today's world, I don't know what is. I am very pleased.

Get the first three numbers of any zip code CORRECT and your mail is 90-percent on its way to the right doorstep. This handy little book lets you get those first three numbers FAST. And, yes, it even has all five numbers for all but the biggest cities (where the last two numbers depend on location, P.O.Boxes & other variables.)
