This product is sold as a CD SECOND or SPARE.
"CD seconds" or "spares" are perfectly good data wise, but have been put aside due to:
- faulty label printing, e.g. off colour or misaligned. A few have been manually labelled or corrected
- over-produced initially, so offered as "spares" to clear
They are all offered at 60% to 90% discount (from the normal price). They will be supplied in clear CD sleeves, rather than the normal CD cases. In many cases they are the last available, i.e. they won't be available, even at full price, when sold out.

Sands and McDougall's (or 'Sands and Mac' as these directories have become known), primarily consist of a trade directory (listed both alphabetically by name, and by trade) for Melbourne and its suburbs. But also included is a street guide, street directory, government and official directory, ecclesiastical and legal directory as well as a municipal directory.
Consisting of over 1500 pages, the directory concludes with over 70 pages of advertisements - all useful insight, often including names of people, places and businesses long gone.
This makes it useful not only for finding names, but also places occupations and other information for family and local historians.
