Scope and Contents

Cobbing writes that these originals were "ideas sorted out for use in Poems for the N.W. Territories (some used as Christmas Cards). In the event, most of this batch of work was mislaid and the N.W. Territory poems were largely created on the day of printing." The abstract markings of the monoprints are sound poems. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
