About the Collection

The Archive of Joan and John Digby's Private Press Publications, housed in LIU Post's Archives and Special Collections, emphasizes collaboration between visuals and textual creativity, with constancy to black and white illustrations, drawings, collages, engravings, and photographs. This is a growing collection. We currently house 8 boxes of the Digby private press publications dating through 2017. The finding aid for four boxes of the archival materials is available below.
 
Selected works of Joan and John Digby are permanently housed at additional institutions. Twelve of John Digby's bird collages are included in the Donald Windham & Sandy M. Campbell Collections at the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale University.
 
The John Digby Papers, 1963-2004, are located in Special Collections at the University of Delaware and include many manuscripts and original collages. Students and faculty at the University of Delaware utilize this collection for courses on collage. John Digby's collages are frequently on exhibition in the library gallery.
 
Dr. Joan Digby is a distinguished professor of English at Long Island University, LIU Post Campus, and an expert photographer whose camera work illuminates many of the Digby's small press publications.
 
John Digby is an acclaimed collagist and poet whose images have been widely exhibited and collected. As well as his illustrations for magazines and book publishers, his collages have enriched many of the text of The Feral Press authors in addition to his own.
 
The Feral Press is the primary imprint of Prehensile Pencil Publications (PPP). This small press is dedicated to producing short works of a specific nature, essays, stories, poems - that gain strength from being interpreted in various black-and-white media. Although many print presses focus on hand-made paper and letterpress printing, PPP deliberately uses ordinary materials because it emphasizes the work itself. Prehensile Pencil Publications "gives equal weight to both word and image in limited edition booklets illustrated in black-and-white media - pencil and ink drawings, collage and photography - reproduced in carbon transfer."
