Description:Lantern slide with a view of a hot kiln interior. Photographed by William Blake.
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;
"Colour Kiln. Ware not in saggars. Door on hinges not a bricked up aperture. Fires to cherry red heat."
