Description: | At the beginning of the 20th century, Price's Patent Candle Company was the world's largest manufacturer of candles. The firm's London factory was based at York Road, Battersea. Its riverside location enabled supplies to be easily transported via the Thames and also provided access to a ready supply of water. These trays were used in the factory to take surplus wax back to the melting vat. They are among several items collected by the Museum from the factory in 1987. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | Museum of London | Subjects: | work | Temporal: | 1930-1955 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
