Scope and Contents
In May 1973, Finlay writes Norman Cherry, a jewelry designer in Kelso, to make a brooch using his Schiff (German word for ship) poem composed for the Stuttgart Max Plank project. He offers several designs including Schiff depicted as a reflection in a pool which is ultimately accepted. The two exchange letters on the progress of the work which is completed in Aug 1973. A letter dated Nov 1973 from Finlay to Buchwald, architect of the Stuttgart project, offers the silver brooch for sale. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Scope and Contents
In this Archive, Finlay indicates that this booklet is a collection of 'one-word poems' about boats. The boats are illustrated, as types, in silhouette-form, and the words are to be thought of as being a kind of 'verbal silhouette' or boat-epigram. He explains the reasons for selection of the boat types into the booklet and states that "the idea will be to keep the printed text the same size - as it were - as the illustrations, so that the text can be thought of as kind of a 'verbal' silhouette." These instructions are provided to Laurie Clark for the illustrations and to Michael Harvey for the text layout. In a letter dated 15 August 1973 to Tom and Laurie Clark about the project, he discusses the writings of Simone Weil, is pleased that they liked "Straiks," brings up the Fulcrum Press controversy, mentions ideas for the illustrations of "Silhouettes" that Laurie should draw, and recommends two books to be read. In a letter dated 1 October 1973 to Tom and Laurie Clark, Finlay...
