  • KC Colour Pages and KC White Pages are the classified and residential telephone directories provided specifically for the Kingston Communications service area. KC Colour Pages became the UK's first classified telephone directory when it was first published in 1954 to celebrate KC's 50th anniversary as Hull's telephone company. The Golden Pages, as the first KC Colour Pages was initially called, carried advertising from a wide range of customers including taxis, sail makers, driving schools, painters and decorators and office machinery suppliers amongst others. By 1992 the Hull Yellow Pages had become so popular with both telephone subscribers and advertisers that it was necessary to split the directory into two separate books, business and residential. Hull Colour Pages continued to grow and in 1998 produced the UK's first full-colour business directory, changing the directory's name from Hull Yellow Pages to Hull Colour Pages in the process. After a rebrand of Kingston Communications to KC in 2010 the Hull Colour Pages was renamed KC Colour Pages. (en)
