A one-page Johns-Manville memo of March 10, 1969, from Stanley Green to F. L. Pundsack at Finderne, headed "Safety Mask." Green had asked Ward Burleson whether J-M's Industrial Insulations Division, with 21 contract locations of its own and direct sales to some 60 independent contractors, could market a new safety mask along with insulations. Burleson saw "one possible disadvantage: it would be awkward for contractors in dealing with unions on mask usage if they also were in the business of selling them," but later sent word that he could market the masks.

What it shows
In early 1969 J-M was developing a disposable mask for fibrous dust at its Research Center (the Bureau of Mines tests). Green saw the insulation contractors as a way "to prove the product with minimum capital exposure" before widening the market.
