Chowning's Tavern Mug
One
of the signs hanging on Chowning's Tavern on Duke of Gloucester Street at Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia.
This sign was interesting as it is three dimensional, and appears to be a
pewter mug with ale flowing out of the top. The photo
was taken in October of 1984 with a Ricoh
Singlex TLS 35 mm SLR equipped with a 55 mm f/1.7 Prinz Auto Rexatar lens
on Kodak Kodacolor VR100 film. The negative was enlarged optically with a
Beseler 23CIIXL enlarger and a 50 mm f/2.8 Rodenstock Rodagon lens on Kodak
Panalure Select Medium Weight Resin Coated silver gelatin photo
paper. Processing was done archivally using Kodak chemistry, with a
final toning with Kodak Rapid Selenium Toner, treated with hypo clearing
agent, and washed in an archival washer.
