About this copy
The copy is stamped "George W. Wright, M.D." at the top and "Produced JM-83" in the margin. The laboratory founded to study tuberculosis later carried out the asbestos dust research that Johns-Manville and other companies paid for; its story is told in a 1958 history of the laboratory.
