Representative Thomas J. Anderson collection.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/41486201

This collection consists of recreational bond materials, arranged alphabetically, collected by Rep. Thomas J. Anderson, for the years 1969-1973. Anderson was a prime mover behind the effort to prepare a recreational bond program that was acceptable to Michigan voters.

The records created as a result of his efforts to fairly treat the needs of these two competing interests, and to devise a program of construction for leisure-time facilities in their respective areas, constitutes the holdings of this collection.
