"My best drawings have often been on stray scraps of paper, falling somewhere between unconscious doodles and focused drawings ... When McSweeney's actually offered to produce a large file folder of my scraps, the counterintuitive idea of replicating my detritus goaded me into presenting some sketchbooks that had enough momentum to go on for more than a few pages. One, from 1979, is here called "BE." The most recent one, from 2007, catalyzed this current folly when it stumbled in the world as part of McSweeney's 27. It's here called "A." A favorite sketchbook from 1983, "NOSE," completes the set" --From introductory pamphlet "Liner Notes" by Art Spiegelman, p. [2] of Introduction.
