BOX 8, 41, 67, 100, 144, 148, 215 Prints and Posters, 1821-1990
This series contains approximately 50 prints and posters which, unlike the unique pieces in Design Renderings, were meant to be reproduced and distributed to the public. These works span from early nineteenth century prints from architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel and lithographers Johann Wenzel Zinke and Johann Christian Schoeller to Günther Schneider-Siemssen's edition of scenic prints from Der Ring des Nibelungen (1972) and artist Robert Indiana's series for The Mother of Us All (1976). This series also holds several prints by Ernst Stern, a frequent collaborator of German director Max Reinhardt. As with design renderings, an underlined name indicates additional information may be found in the Designer Files.
Arranged alphabetically by creator.

BOX 9, 41-42, 69, 218-228 Designer Files, 1911-2004, (bulk 1947-1997)
Stiga maintained informational files on many of the designers he collected. The majority of these files are limited to a single article or obituary notice, although others contain exhibition catalogs, biographical pamphlets, or other ephemera specific to a designer's life and work. Many of these materials are in languages other than English, such as Czech, Dutch, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Russian, and Ukrainian. Individuals with more substantive files include Boris Anisfeld, Léon Baskt, Alexandre Benois, Eugene Berman, Edward Gordon Craig, Donald Oenslager, and Günther Schneider-Siemssen. The file on Irene Sharaff consists entirely of photocopies of designs held in other collections. Designers whose names are underlined also have renderings identified in this collection.
Arranged alphabetically by designer.
