0.7 Linear feet
Boxes 17, 24, OV 29

Materials related to Toshiko Takaezu's studio practice mostly consist of technical files regarding the construction and operation of kilns and other equipment. There are manuals, designs, contracts, instructions, regulations, and printed material related to looms, stoves, kilns, septic tanks, oil tanks, and wells mostly for Toshiko Takaezu's New Jersey home and studio. Other miscellaneous materials include receipts for art supplies; three guest books, probably for visitors to the studio; glaze formulas, and writings by other people on the subject of pottery and clay.
The material in this series is arranged in alphabetical order.
The bulk of this series has been digitized. Materials which have not been digitized include blank pages, blank versos of photographs, and duplicates. In some cases, exhibition catalogs and other publications have had their covers, title pages, and relevant pages digitized. Only the first pages of the writings by others on clay have been digitized.
