Pages from the 1938 Croton-on-Hudson phone directory. Courtesy of Carl Oechsner. Thanks to our friend Carl Oechsner we were able to get our hands on a copy of the 1938 Croton-on-Hudson phone directory. 1 The plan was to scan some of the ads like the

ones for the Mikado Inn, Konco’s Garage, and Robbins Pharmacy shown below. But when we looked closer and saw listings for well-known Crotonites like Max Eastman, Margaret Mayo, and Miss Carrie E. Tompkins we decided to scan every page, run the images

through an optical character recognition program, and post a searchable PDF on Google Docs. To see the PDF click here . Do you have any early Croton phone directories or other Croton ephemera? We would love to scan other early directories,

photographs of the village or similar material. If you have something you would like to share send us an email by clicking here . Ad for the Mikado Inn from the 1938 Croton-on-Hudson phone directory. Ad for Konco’s Garage from the 1938

Croton-on-Hudson phone directory. Ad for Robbins Pharmacy from the 1938 Croton-on-Hudson phone directory. Carl’s copy is missing the covers, which is why the first page is numbered 3. ↩ Share this: Print (Opens in new window) Print Email a link to a
