The George Woodward Archive in the Derbyshire Record Office in Matlock, Derbyshire has a large collection of his works. Many of his Prints are described in the Catalogue of Political and Personal Satires Preserved in the Department of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum. The most complete catalogue of his works can be found in A Catalogue of the Books, Drawings, Prints and Periodicals forming the William A.
