Description:Lantern slide showing a crate maker at work.
This lantern slide appears to be one of a group used for a presentation or slide show by Blake entitled “Staffordshire Pottery.”
A small folder containing approximately sixty reader cards was found in the same box as the slides. The cards contain information about the images. The card that appears to correspond to this slide reads;
"Cratemaking. Crates are wooden nets, so we are close to Egypt after all. But we use straw between the pieces."
