Series I.D., Collages and artwork, contains John Digby’s original collages, photocopied reproductions of collages, collage source materials, and other paper-cut and hand-drawn artwork. Noteworthy items in this series include a print of a Digby collage created for Stone House Press accompanying a Robert Bly poem which is signed by the poet. Included are matted and framed works, as well as small-scale, “loose” collages unidentified with any collage series. Source materials for Digby collages contain some of the oldest items in collection including torn pages from The Illustrated News of the World (1892), the German Uber Land Und Meer (1900) as well as pages from other unknown books circa 1900. The subseries also contains Digby artwork in other mediums including original paper-cuts (published as illustrations in Gourmet Magazine, date unknown), drawings for the artist’s “Punch and Judy” series, two collage journals, and three drawing pads.
