If you visited Indian Market on its third anniversary in 1925, you could have purchased a pot from now-famed San Ildefonso Pueblo potters Maria and Julian Martinez. This glass lantern slide photograph shows the two working in front of the Palace of the Governors Portal. Photo courtesy of the Photo Archives, Neg.
