LIA ADVERTISEMENTS IN "BUSINESS WEEK" - 1970
To: Members of the Lead Industries Association, Inc.:
Here are the first four Lead Industries Ads for 1970 in Business Week. Through this publication our campaign reaches 627,000 influential names in American business management.
The objective: to dramatize the important role lead plays in everyone's lives as well as spotlighting product applications. This effort is supplemental to the Lead Industries campaigns in seventeen (17) vertical publications.
Today's adverse developments for lead involving air pollution and gasoline containing TEL, with the attendent adverse feeling toward lead generated in an un informed public, makes the Association's campaign in "Business Week" more important than ever.
Every one of our ads in this important publication tells of a truly con structive use for lead from whLch society benefits. Future ads will highlight important benefits of lead m architecture and construction, battery uses and design.
We know lead's essential role in modem society. we tell the rest of the world.
This is one way in which
Sincerely,

Highways are safer
A lot ot thoughts drift through your mind when you've been
driving for six hours straight. You listen to the radio. You day
dream. And you try to keep your mind on the road. You may not
know it, but for the past six hours, you've had an unseen
helper, this bold chrome yellow line at danger points which
depends on lead pigments. Cautionary highway signsare also
painted with this lead pigment.
There's a good reason that the Bureau of Public Roads,
the U.S. Department of Commerce and other public and pri
vate safety organizations go with lead. Lead chromate gives
excellent visibility, is weather-resistant, and has high color
absorption.
Because lead is there, highways all over the world are safer.
