Subseries Description
This subseries contains a wide variety of artist’s materials and documents Hall’s preliminary ideas for works that were seemingly not realized or that cannot be associated with any one work. Included are a wide variety of handmade papers, many of which Hall made herself; blank books demonstrating specific binding structures and/or material composition; handmade rubber stamps; and organic and found materials that Hall intended to or did use in her books. There are also folders about a variety of topics or ideas that Hall pursued, often repeatedly in her works, such as fish, poetry, and nautical imagery.
