First published in 1898 as a single volume by Harvey Mark Thomas as Hardware and Kindred Trades, it grew to be known as “the purchasing bible” and “the bible of industry” by industrial professionals across North America and around the world. Its 100th and final edition was published in 2006. Today, Thomas Register is the proprietary database powering the foundation of ThomasNet.com.
