first edition Paperback
1994 · San Francisco
by Ellis, Linda (SF State) and Katherine Crum (Mills College)
San Francisco: the two colleges, 1994. Paperback. 40p., illustrated with several line maps, diagrams, photographs, a lovely softbound pamphlet, staple-fastened into decorated 11x7 inch wraps. An immaculate copy: perfectly sound, clean and unmarked. Various impurities in the raw clay conditioned certain colors; a well-oxygenated firing tended to yield red, while heated gasses mostly carbon monoxide/ dioxide created blacks and browns. The experience potter knew how to control the chemistry of firing. (Inventory #: 325744)
