Thanks,

Thankyou. For the link upon this topic. Fireoutofclay.
Contained inside the city data forum San Antonio, is a post where I had a conversation with a guy and some other members about this "sporting girls" topic. So, this guy uploaded copies of pages from the Blue Book from a verylong time ago. maybe the twenties I think. In singular vertical long lists were the names of the girls, addresses, all of it and even uploaded the blue book's outside front cover.
I don't remember if he had a copy of the Blue book, booklet, himself or
knew where to find this information as it was quite some time ago. 2004post

It's a thin page, but at least it's something. Maybe a movie will be made about it.
