Black and white photographic print showing a single display case from the Circulating Design Scheme.

The image illustrates the Metals and their Qualities display, featuring case number 1, from group Metal 3C.

Schools taking part in the Circulating Design Scheme received a reference photograph and a record card for each individual case. Reference photographs were used as a visual inventory, allowing the contents of each display to be checked.

The photograph was produced by photographer Tessa Grimshaw in her London Studio.

To the reverse of the print are the case and group number written in pen, some struck through script also written in pen, the photographer’s stamp and an instructional adhesive label.
