SCRAP BOOK WITH ORIGINAL SMALL PAINTINGS. c. 1969.

London (?): s.p., n.d. (c. 1969)

26 x 20cm diary style commercial book (with “High Wycombe College of Technology and Art” embossed cover) content of c. 100pp of blank pages to which Collins has attached small abstract paintings, or inserted folded sheets of paintings along with hand-written texts. A mix of scrapbook (some items such as printed fabrics are stapled to the internal pages) and sketch book, the works are in the main abstract gouaches. The book appears chaotic with oversize pages on browned paper inserted but it is as Collins kept it. Unique. it is signed on the inside front cover in ink. We estimate the date as 1969 due to letters found inside the book (removed to place in a different part of this archive).
