The Lead Papers: Part Two

leadpapers

Last week, we told you about The Lead Papers, a project where we'll be dropping 70,000+ documents about lead throughout the next few weeks.

Our first drop was The Kehoe Files, which you can read more about here. They're about the career of Robert Kehoe, the foremost defender of leaded gasoline.

Our next drop is today. In The Lead Papers Part Two, you'll find secret memos and board minutes of the Lead Industries Association, the primary trade group for companies that made lead-based products.

There's also a large file containing documents from a number of companies, large and small, who made lead-based products, especially paint.
