Sketches 1991-2087
Scope and Contents
This collection primarily consists of 6224 sketches drawn by Ida Libby Dengrove. Most of the drawings are courtroom sketches from criminal and civil trials. Those trials include the David "Son of Sam" Berkowitz trial; U.S. v. Williams, 705 F.2d 603 (2d Cir. 1983) (ABSCAM); New Jersey v. Chesimard, 555 F. 2d 63 (3d Cir. 1977) (Assata Shakur); U.S. v. Dillinger, 657 F. 2d 140 (7th Cir 1981) (Abbie Hoffman); U.S. v. Hinckley, 525 F. Supp. 1342 (D.D.C. 1981) and many others.
In addition to the sketches, the collection also contains newsclippings, books, and other materials that document the life and work of Ida Libby Dengrove.
The University of Virginia Law Library made digital copies of most of the sketches and added them to the Dengrove collection. Not all materials have been digitized or are available publicly. The presence of a digital copy for one item in a file does not indicate that every item in that file has been digitized. In this finding aid, researchers will see the following media formats (also called instances) attached to the file descriptions: original physical drawings, digital copies for research, and digital copies for long-term preservation.
