24/150: Radges’ Topeka Directory, 1882. Samuel Radges published city directories with advertisements and cross-referenced addresses. In many years, both the residents and the addresses are cross-referenced, so one can find who lived at an address. In 1882, Radges put asterisks (*) by the names of prostitutes. When the city fathers told him he couldn’t do that, he agreed not to put asterisks by their names. The next year, he used plusses (+). The Topeka Room has a collection of directories dating back to 1870.

This picture is hazy impressionistic with bright touches and vivid colors blended with hazy pastels. It is beautiful with much movement and energy.
