Abstract Or Scope: The Graphic Arts collection contains over 20,000 books on the history of printing and publishing, and related topics such as illustrative techniques, bookbinding, calligraphy, and book collecting. It thus overlaps significantly with the Book Arts Collection, though the books tend to be newer (post-1850). Created in the 1950s within the Library Service Library to serve the needs of library school students learning about the history of the book, the collection was transferred to RBML in 1991 when the library school was closed. The books, classed in the Library of Congress system, are found in CLIO.

The book consists of a short text by Griffin, his photographs of Merton and the surrounding environment, and Merton's own photographs and paintings (which he called "calligraphs" or "signatures"--abstract miniatures suggesting the influences of Franz Kline, Paul Klee, and Zen calligraphy). Griffin was appointed "Official Biographer" in 1969; he worked on the "Official Biography" from 1969 until 1977.

Abstract Or Scope: This subseries contains material relating to Lindsey's collaborations with Judy Garland in the 1960s. Much of the material in this subseries relates to Lindsey's work on The Judy Garland Show (1963-1964), for which he arranged all the music, composed a number of cues and songs, conducted the band, and accompanied Garland on the piano. His music for Judy Garland are generally represented in annotated conductor scores (usually ozalid copies of calligraphy scores produced by a copyist): there are no instrumental parts and only one (manuscript) concert score. Through The Judy Garland Show, Lindsey arranged music for many of the show's musical guests: these performers are listed at the folder level. This collection does not include all of the music that Lindsey produced for The Judy Garland Show: the musical numbers from several episodes are missing in their entirety. This subseries includes a number of print documents that chart Lindsey's work with Garland, both on television and on stage. Material relating to Lindsey's work on films that starred Judy Garland can be found in Series II.
