Description: An A4 archival album containing 9 samples of wallpaper from the cottage originally built by John (Jack) and Ethel (Leila) Hines in 1909. This two roomed cottage has been added on to since 1927. The house is situated at the end of Blundstones Road. The wallpaper samples came from a piece of wall cut out to allow installation of a bigger window. Vicki Warden, paper conservator, painstakingly peeled back the wall paper layers to reveal the different papers. They include a first layer of newspaper. The museum has a framed display of the peeled layers, going back to the palings and scrim.
