"Toy" Presses And The Rise Of Fugitive U.S. Government Documents

Abstract

This article examines the policies and practices of U.S. executive branch printing during the 1930s. Particular attention is given to such issues as the lack of congressional guidance and support; the development and use of new printing technologies, which enabled the executive departments to exercise greater administrative control over printing; and the diminished authority of the Public Printer. All of this contributed to the growth of fugitive U.S. government documents. The number of parallels with present-day government information is remarkable. © 1994.
