Title | Dark green board covered notebook |
Date | June 1948; May 1952; Aug - Sept 1953; 1961 |
Description | Dark green board covered notebook containing notes related to the making and designing of pottery, including tables and formulas for clay compounds, glaze recipes kiln reports. Also includes sketches of bowls, plates and jugs. The notes in the first third of the book appear to be lecture notes, whereas the remaining material seems to relate to Annan's professional career as a potter and relates to practice rather than theory. Accompanied by a significant number of additional pieces of paper containing sketches and glaze recipes originally inserted into the notebook. |
Notes | The handwriting throughout the notebook is inconsistent and may indicate additional hands. It is assumed that the majority of handwriting in the exercise book is that of Annan, but the style differs slightly to that found in other parts of the archive, making a definitive identification problematic. |
