While searching for another text yesterday, I noticed a few copies of the 75th Anniversary Directory of the Byzantine Metropolia for sale online. I mention this because I've occasionally had folks ask about its availability.

Copies do show up from time to time on eBay and elsewhere, but they're often priced at $50 or more. Two of the three I saw were very reasonably priced at about $35 (firm prices from booksellers, not eBay auction starting bid prices).

I debated whether to just post that much and tell folks to PM me if they wanted links but, to be honest, it would drive me crazy were I to be bombarded with more PMs than I already get - so, for anyone interested ...

And, a copy of the less commonly found 25th Anniversary Directory ...

Byzantine Slavonic Rite Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh: Silver Jubilee (1924-1949) [abebooks.com]

In case anyone is wondering, no - I have nothing to do with any of the sellers. I was just pleased as can be to have found a 1960 directory published by the Ukrainian Archeparchy of Philadelphia biggrin

Many years,

Neil
