Gentlemens Directory

Two days ago, the holy Grail was revealed in the form of a small pocket book. Especially fragile, the book is usually kept under lock and key. At the request of The New York Times, however, the historical society took it out for a spin this month so readers could experience one of the more colorful and detailed guides ever produced on the ins and outs of New York City’s brothels.

One of the entries, the Times reports, reads, “’an hour cannot be spent more pleasantly’ than at Harry Hill’s place on 25 East Houston Street.” Challenge accepted. I don’t know about you guys, but I’ll be printing the 32 page book and reading it to my future kids.

Read the Grail here.
