Full title - The Wrysgan Slate Quarry Company Limited Prices of Slates.

Prices and particulars of slates of the Wrysgan Slate Quarry Company, Blaenau Ffestiniog, dated 1907. The prices given are for machine dressed ‘blue slates’ in various sizes (ranging from 24’’ x 14’’ to 10’’ x 8’’), and of various quality (‘best mediums’, ‘strong mediums’, ‘seconds’, and ‘thirds’ quality slates). The price list is printed on cream card, and is folded down the centre. The donor’s family were timber merchants in Taunton, Somerset. They supplied timber and slate to local builders and merchants, and as a result acquired a collection of slate price lists.
