The collection consists of rare American art instruction books, together with related printed materials on art, published largely between 1794 and the mid-twentieth century.

The collection includes drawing manuals, drawing cards, lithographs, copybooks, and other printed ephemera, as well as a small number of Canadian, European, and Asian publications.
