Two pages from Volume 18 of the Encyclopaedia Britannica: the title page and page 100 with an older, unsigned entry on "Pneumonoconiosis" that cites A. J. Lanza's Silicosis and Asbestosis (1938) for further reading. The entry treats silicosis as the main dust disease and describes asbestosis and coal miners' disease more briefly. It is marked as trial exhibit P-479.
