Description
Charcoal, graphite, pastel, ink, watercolour paint on paper, 146 pages, 475 x 310 mm

This sketchbook mainly contains sketches of labourers and working class men and women in London. Some have been identified with the location and profession of the subject (e.g. 'Roadsweeper - Canon St') and a date. Many others have not. The inside of the front cover is inscribed 'Sketches in London March [to] 1925'. The sketchbook appears to have been filled in in a month-long period between March and April 1925.
