Names and Numbers

Since the beginning, the vision of Names and Numbers has been to publish accurate, complete, and easy-to-use local phone books that provide five-star value to our advertisers.

Established in 1974, Names and Numbers was founded by Mr. Ken Brock. In the beginning, Mr. Brock organized all aspects of the small independent directory company including sales, production, marketing, and distribution. Daring to dream, Mr. Brock moved the business from Springfield, Missouri to his hometown of Pittsburg, Kansas, where he operated Names and Numbers out of his home.

More than 40 years later, Names and Numbers' vision continues to be successful, producing award-winning directories containing an abundance of useful, local information, including an Emergency Page, Resource Guide (providing areacode/time zone map, toll free numbers, and state zip codes), Community Information Section (providing calendar of events, local area maps, and local stadium seating charts), comprehensive Yellow and White Page Sections, and the popular Caller ID Guide, plus much more!
