Series 6: Register of Paintings, undated
(Box 3; 0.4 linear ft.)

Balcomb Greene's register of paintings bears evidence of the 1996 fire that destroyed his Montauk studio, and it is likely that portions did not survive. A separate page for each completed painting contains a small photograph or sketch, with the title, date of execution, and code or negative number indicated. Many pages include notes relating to exhibitions, loans, and ownership; some contain the notation "destroyed."
Sheets documenting works executed during the periods 1941-1948, 1963-1964, and 1980-1982 are the least damaged sections of the register. The remaining portion consists of partial pages missing titles, dates of execution, and other salient information.
