2 boxes Linear Feet (The Central Pennsylvania Coal Producers Association was created on April 11, 1918 during a joint meeting of the Association of Bituminous Coal Operators of Central PA and the Low Volatile Operators Association. This new Association was organized to facilitate the full co-operation of the Pennsylvania coal industry in the war effort during World War I. In the wake of government regulations on the distribution of coal production, the Coal Producers Association attempted to enlist the cooperation of all of the coal companies in the state to ensure these regulations remained equitable for the coal industry in Pennsylvania. The Central Pennsylvania Coal Producers Association papers are housed in two archival boxes. These papers include photocopies of the Association minutes and other reports dating from 1922 to 1954.)
