TitleNotebook: 'Miscellaneous notes on drawings, June 1921'
DescriptionThis notebook appears to have been used by Oppé to record detailed information about the works in his collection. The entries are organised randomly but all are labelled with the catalogue number assigned by Oppé.

Entries usually include some or all of the following information:

-artist name
-quality and execution
-provenance (including sale dates & prices paid)
-contextual & historical notes
-subject
-notes and responses to the opinions of other art historians and collectors.

The above title was inscribed in the notebook's inside front cover, along with Oppé's name.

The notebook contains several inserts: some of these have been affixed to the page by Oppé, while others are loose but have been left in place.
