Item 609 - Sketches for the K.P., edited by N. W. Paine

A collection of sketches and cartoons depicting university life made for the student newspaper the K.P., many of them carrying printer's instructions from N. W. Paine. There are 91 pen-and-ink drawings on 39 sheets, one pen-and-ink and watercolour drawing, "The typical Tuft" by A.H.M. accompanied by verses, and 12 printed drawings (proofs?). These are signed variously by "Cam" (identified as E. A. Sutherland), E. S. Grogan, and O. F. Hollebone, as well as the unidentified "AHM", "EEY", "JAM", "PAT", and "Pongo". Accompanied by the manuscript draft prospectus for "The K.P. Company - Limited" with signatures of shareholders; and by a printed photograph of classmate Sir Charles Ross.

Several images also appear in a related album of N. W. Paine's housed as Adversaria Album 22, and some images are identified there as of C. W. Moore, the Cambridge rowing coach, classmate and rower R. O. Kerrison and the Jesus College Senior Tutor E. H. Morgan.
