Collection notes

A photographic plate drawer at an observatory.

The head is no larger than a fleck of salt. A border of reddish shellac shows around the glass, the only warm colour in the drawer.

Record an observation in Comet Nucleus on Plate Emulsion, with Comet Dust Blue hatching for the tail and Plate Edge Shellac frames around the exposure notes.
