- Two boxes of 12 10x15cm Kodak Verichrome Film Packs with broken seals. Each box is mostly yellow with black and red manufacturer and product details throughout - there are two paper adhesive stickers holding the box closed, the one that has the expiration date on it on each box is broken.Verichrome was a kind of panchromatic film that yielded high-quality black and white photographs thanks to the fine-grained emulsion. Film Packs were basic forms of storage meant to be used shortly after purchasing as their [mostly] paper packaging did not keep out oxygen well and had a tendency to fog over time, rendering the film unusable in the long term. It was replaced by the more stable Verichrome Pan in the 1950s.

- Two paper folding envelopes for holding film and/or developed prints - one is Kodak and one is from Wallace Heaton Ltd., a developing studio in London England. Both wallets fold open to show two open-sided pouches where either films or prints could be slotted and have advertising for other services/products printed on them. The Kodak wallet is predominantly white and blue, has a small slip of paper that appears to have “13/5/30 [?] Winton” and several numbers written on it in pencil, several numbers written in pencil on the left-hand side inside, and “Scotland / Negatives of Pete’s Scotland” written in black ink by Catharine Whyte on the front cover. The Wallace Heaton wallet is predominantly grey and black with a picture of two women looking at a photo album on the front cover, a slip of paper that appears to be a receipt for the Browns Hotel made out to “Nice Esq” tucking inside, “Scotland / Nice Esq / egative Scotland 1930” written in different hands on the back [everything except “Nice Esq” written by Catharine Whyte].

Dry Mounting Tissues were a kind of adhesive used to attach a print to a support or mount [like card stock, cardboard, wood, foam core, etc] that is activated by heat and pressure. A smooth piece of paper would be laid over the print, with the tissue between the print and the support, and then a hot iron would be pressed over the whole area, melting the tissue and activating the glue. Once cool, the glue was set.
