Default Mailing list for potential retail buyers?

I'm having catalogues for my line printed and the next step will be to mail them out to retailers around the U.S.. Does anyone have any ideas / experience in finding or buying a mailing list of shops (idealy with the buyers name)? How have you all been going about this? Are you manually using internet / yellow pages to track down potential stores? And if so, how do you know what type of shirts they carry? I'm thinking there has to be an easier way as I'm sure this leg work has already been done repeatedly in the past. Any light that can be shed on this subject is appreciated. Thanks!

You could try attending some tradeshows, or even asking the tradeshow operators if they sell their lists (they probably don't).

You could also try infomat.com. They have lots of industry data.
