The collection originally comprised four soft sculptures of the heads and upper bodies of Canadian Prime Ministers Sir John A. Macdonald, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, John Diefenbaker and Pierre Elliott Trudeau. A subsequent accrual was made in 1992 when the then National Archives of Canada commissioned the artist Heather Danylewich to create two life-size sculptures of the characters "Ellie" and the dog "Farley" from the "For Better or For Worse" comic strip. They were used for a one-person exhibition of Lynn Johnston's work at the Canadian Museum of Caricature.
