Description:Lantern slide showing a pottery worker cutting clay for the making of Saggars.
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;
"Cutting Clay for a Saggar Maker. Prepared clay is placed in a heap and long slices are cut from it as required."
