Full-page advertisement by the Asbestos Information Committee of London, printed in Punch on November 13, 1968 (page 700). Under the headline 'billions of Btu's every day are conserved by asbestos' and a photo of insulated plant piping, it credits asbestos with high-temperature insulation in refineries and power stations, fire protection in buildings and ships, heat shields in spacecraft and brake linings, and claims that without it life would be 'far more hazardous.'
