There are twenty prints by Papperitz in the Garrett Collection, many of which have been identified as impressions from the series "Zwölf Radirungen von G. F. Papperitz, Landschaftsmaler (Twelve Etchings of G. F. Papperitz, Landscape Painter)," published in Dresden in 1846. A printed paper cover for the series is also housed with the prints, though it is unclear as to which impressions came from this cover.
