Level	File
Extent	1 vol and 1 item
Title	Small red 'Lion Brand' 'Memo Book'
Date	Nov 1960-Apr 1961
Description	Small red 'Lion Brand' 'Memo Book' containing experimental test recipes for different coloured glazes to be used on the tiles for the Fleet Building, London. Accompanied by a piece of card containing glaze weights originally inserted into the notebook.
Notes	It is assumed that the 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. Some notes bear a similarity to Tennant's handwriting and could have been written by Tennant on Annan's behalf.
Related Material	See 2012.103/C/1/13 for black and white photographs of the Fleet Building mural by Annan; 2012.103/D/3 for a copy of the architects plan showing the Farringdon Street elevation of the Fleet Building and the proposed position of the tiled panels; and 2012.103/G/1/6 for Annan's correspondence related to the commission.
