* Early sketches (including handwritten manuscripts and cover roughs) from the books he has worked on during his time as Laureate including Goth Girl and the Wuthering Fright and The Hunting of the Snark
* Political sketches or roughs for the Observer cartoon, reminding us of the major events that have punctuated his time as Laureate
* Birthday sketches, impromptu portraits, posters and Christmas cards, sketches for poems and song lyrics
