SCRAP BOOK WITH ORIGINAL SMALL PAINTINGS & DRAWINGS. 1965/66.

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

25 x 20cm commercial note book (“The Kinnoull Note Book”) content of c. 100pp of blank lined pages to which Collins has attached small abstract paintings, or inserted folded and unfolded 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. Unique. it is signed on the inside front cover in felt tipped pen and later dated by Collins in green felt tipped ink as “About 1965/66?”. Covers are very grubby and the book appears chaotic with oversize pages on browned paper inserted and oversize to the pages causing some edge damage but it is as Collins kept it.
