Please do whatever you like with this selection of American Official Publications from the 70s: take them seriously, be surprised, find the fun underneath the serious appearance…in any case, I hope you will agree it's been worth pointing them out!

- “Asbestos in hand-held hair dryers”
- “Implications of the President’s health budget”
- “International Coffee Agreement Act of 1979”
- “Gold and Silver Labelling and Advertising Act”
