Field notes

The page distinguishes the deduplicated All view from edition-level listings: 13,696 unique establishments sit within 68,330 total entries. Its downloads include split KML files for Google My Maps, alongside CSV, GeoJSON, and OCR materials. The FAQ explains gaps in the editions, including wartime publication suspension and the absence of a surviving public copy of the 1936 prototype.
