The Industrial Hygiene Digest was the monthly abstract journal of the Industrial Hygiene Foundation of America, Mellon Institute, Pittsburgh, the research body that industry, including Johns-Manville, paid to follow the science of occupational disease. It went to the foundation's member companies. This is the one issue we have from 1957 (Volume 21): Johns-Manville's own copy, free to read online or download. The index below lists its contents by topic; each entry opens the issue at its page.
