Both are staples with country-wide distribution. In the second place, both, are commodities that most people understand. There is nothing mysterious about them * . . they're just good, pure, dependable materials. In the third place, both arc adaptable. I take white-lead, and with various oils and tbipners, make many types of paint. You take flour as a hose, and using other things with it, make bread, cake, cookies, biscuits and so on. With your sack of flour, plup a few other ingredients, you have the makings for about everything a baker has to bake. And you don't need to tie up mpeh money in stock. With my keg or two of lead; plus a few oils and thinners and colors, I have the makings for about every type of paint my jobs demand. I don't have' a big Inventory of materials either, nor any waste to speak oft, to dry un_narX--mv profit. j UL 14 1999 08*37 2035665078 PAGE.07 N15831.05 7-SWP-0053263 JUL 1<J 1999 00:35 2035665073 t o t a l p.es PAGE.00 N15831.06 7-SWP-0053264 Fax Transmission i No. of pages Incl. this one: t o : t)dd HdXhruiMj> Company: Fax Number: ( fate) (olfi j 44-OT? ___ From: Date: 7' 14 ___ If you do not receive all pages, please contact: Connecticut Historical Commission 59 South Project Street Hartford, CT 0p106 Phone: (860) $66-3005 Fax: (860)566*5078 subject: Qopn of- Letfey nx -l^f. tuj 'IfiMb -|kr , f <mdwn0JL; , Special Instructions: po r p . ai N15831 7-SWP-0053257 STATE OF CONNECTICUT CONNECTICUT HISTORICAL COMMISSION May 26,1999 Mr. Stu Bedford Dutch Boy Paints c/o Sherwin-Williams 101 Prospect Avenue, IBM Cleveland, OH 441 IS Subject: Request for Permission to Reprint Illustration Dutch Boy-Paintermagazine Dear Mr. Bedford: Dr. David A. Poirier, of the Connecticut Historical Commission, and Dr. Kenneth Fedex, of Central Connecticut State University, are working with Greenwood Publishing Group to compile an edited volume focusing on various natural and man-made hazards that may surround archaeological field investigations. The volume ist intended to provide professional archaeologists with useful information in preparing risk analyses and exposure assessments. Each paper identifies a potential hazard, discusses health safety implications, and offers constructive advice to guide future fieldwork. The academic and professional archaeological community is the projected audience for the volume, rather than the general public. The article dealing with lead hazards, ofwhich I am co-author, has a section which describes the history and popularity of lead additives to paint. Because Dutch Boy was a leader in the paint industry during the height of this period, reprinting a typical advertisement seems appropriate for educational purposes as part of this paper. The article is intended to be purely factual and no opinions (adverse or otherwise) about the paint industry or the use of lead as an additive are expressed. The article does not identify lead as a major hazard lor archaeologists and only recommends a few common sense precautions in dealing with potentially lead-contaminated sites. Enclosed are a selection of illustrations taken from Dutch Joy-Parnfermagazine which would suit our purpose for this publication. If there is one (or more) that you would be land enough to approve for this specific use, we would be extremely grateful. The published illustration will acknowledge, "courtesy of SherwinWilliams'' or whatever other notation your corppany prefers. JUS- 14 1999 03:30 TCV.
