Very Miscellaneous, published by Photoworks in 1997 is slightly different from Schmid's other projects. This one entailed him 'completing' the book's content by photographing pages of text with very shallow focus to emphasize certain words or a sentence. The photographs were culled from an archive of a photographer named George Garland who photographed people living in and around Petworth, a small village in West Sussex. The texts are from local newspapers and were photographed in a way so as to convey a sense of 'fading memories.' The title comes from an ID label that was on the box in George Garland's archive that contained these photographs. This project was commissioned and edited by Val Williams and was part of a larger project called Country Life.
