This curious image is one of a group of photographs donated to the Museum by the NSW Egg Marketing Board in 1990.
This pop art arrangement of cans containing “Dried Egg Albumen” may have been used in a marketing campaign by the Board at some stage. I don’t work in marketing, but if I had of worked on this campaign I may have suggested that the product be called “Dried Egg Whites”, instead of the less palatable “Albumen”.
