| Title | McCarthy Sketchbook |
| Date(s) | 1969-1971 |
| Description | A very large black sketchbook. The book is bound with board and buckram and is approximately thirty six centimetres tall by twenty four wide. In terms of its contents the sketchbook contains mostly male nudes with a few unfinished architectural sketches. There are no page numbers.
The contents of this sketchbook are essentially a continuation of the sketches seen in P/MCC/1/12 and P/MCC/1/13. As with P/MCC/1/13, some of the sketches near the middle of the book have been drawn upside down. There are also a number of loose pieces of paper with sketches on them at the back of the book, all of which appear to have come from different sources. There is also a postcard from Paul Joyce which appears to have been used as a bookmark.
Number of Sketches: 61 |
| Extent | 1 item |
| PhysicalDescription | Condition: Similarly to P/MCC/1/13, this sketchbook is in poor condition. As with the other sketchbooks of this type P/MCC/1/14 has suffered damage to its spine in numerous areas. Some of the pages have also come loose, though none appear to have been physically torn out. |
