WELLINGTON PLATES              are  made  under  the  most
                favourable  conditions  for  securing  the  very  highest
                quality of product.
             Buildings specially constructed for the purpose are devoted
         to their manufacture, and the very latest and most approved
         methods, chemical and mechanical, are employed to ensure the
         plates being perfect in coating and uniform in speed and quality.
             WELLINGTON PLATES        are made   in  eleven  varieties,
         for various requirements, each plate having an individuality of its
         own.  The following list explains the special purposes for which
         each plate is intended.

         I.—WELLINGTON             'XTREME       PLATE.

                 This is the fastest of all the Wellington Plates and repre-
             sents a great advance in modern dry plate manufacture.  In
             addition to extreme sensitivity it possesses a degree of general
             good quality which can hardly be surpassed in a slower plate.
              It is particularly suitable for portraiture, whether by daylight
             or artificial light, and is strongly recommended for all purposes
             where very high speed, fine grain, good density-giving powers,
             and perfect gradation are required.
                 The speed  is 400 H. &  D.,  350 Watkins,  or F/128
             Wynne.
