Borman Attorney September 8, 1980 Clyde L. MacGowan Haims, MacGowan & Mclnerney 490 Grand Avenue Oakland, California 94610 Re: Cunringham v. Georgia-Pacific et al Dear Clyde: Here is a list of the only Georgia-Pacific products which have ever contained any asbestos elements to the best of our knowledge. Asbestos was used in these products from the early 1940's until the dates indicated below. We can provide more precise beginning dates by examining the formula histories for each product. This task would take two technicians at least a day to complete, and I am hopeful that the information supplied here will suffice.
