The bulk of the company's records consist of two series of job progress scrapbooks, a "major" and a "minor" or "miscellaneous" series. The files are relatively complete. The scrapbooks are organized alphabetically by client or subcontractor's name. Within each entry, items are pasted in chronologically, beginning with a notation of the first contact and ending with the job's completion. The contents typically include notations made by Campbell in the office or in the field, details of the site, sketches, blueprints, lists of parts, specifications, and background materials on the site and client.
