Part 19 (2006/160): Additions, 1971-1995 1.8 c.f. (1 records center carton and 2 archives boxes) : Files of the Consumer Protection Office, 1971-1995, consisting of administrative files and files on cases investigated by the department’s consumer specialists. The administrative files concern ongoing review of consumer contact procedures, forms, and training materials; press releases about Department of Justice (DOJ) consumer litigation; and annual statistics. Additional statistical information can be found in the office’s annual/monthly reports in the government documents section of the Historical Society Library. The specialists’ investigations are generally represented by only a few papers each, although several files concerning automobile sales and services and the sales practices of magazine publishers are of interest.
