A satire of a phrenological text, pontificating on the many virtues of secretiveness, order, amativeness, benevolence, firmness, and so on, each with an accompanying caricature in the plates. "Although it clearly drew inspiration from similarly named works by the great English engraver George Cruikshank, Scraps was like no other American publication: an extensive set of images by a single hand, a long look through a single artist's eyes. Scraps was a sustained visual performance, overwhelming the reader with images.
