Thom's Dublin Directory

Jorn Barger August 2000

Circa 1900 these were about three inches thick and included:

For Ulysses, Joyce used a 1904 edition that claimed to depict Dublin as of 25 October 1903 (published 31 Dec 1903)

Gifford says Bloom's 1886 edition [17.1362] could have been either of two versions: The Post Office Directory and Calendar (smaller), or Thom's Official Directory of the UK of Great Britain and Ireland for 1886 comprising the 1886 Post Office Dublin City and County Directory
