Scope and Content

Finished artwork for 'Mr Majeika' by Humphrey Carpenter, first published in 1984, complete except for the chapter heading illustrations for chapters 2 and 6. The file includes the illustration for the cover of the book, and two sheets with manuscript notes in Rodgers' hand identifying the artwork. The illustrations are line drawings executed in black pen, the cover illustration having been coloured with coloured pencils, on thin A4 card. All of the inside illustrations have been numbered sequentially in pencil, although there are gaps in the numbering sequence, and annotated with sizing instructions for the printer. The cover illustration has been signed by the artist.

Arrangement

The illustrations are arranged according to the annotated numbering sequence. This does not always reflect the order in which they appear in the book.
