The collection consists of loose photographs, photograph albums, newspaper clippings, magazines, and correspondence (approximately 74 photographs, some bound in three different photograph albums, 47 clippings, one magazine, and 17 pieces of correspondence). Materials mostly deal with David Rodgers's professional life, but also include a small number of photographs of his wife Carrie Rodgers, cars, and his personal yachts. There are also three portraits of an unknown young man. Two of the photograph albums are dedicated to ships built by Skinner and Eddy, and the third consists mostly of portraits of David Rodgers at work in the shipyard. Includes photographs of the yacht Carrie and ships David Rodgers, Edgefield, Edmore, Elkridge, Niels Nielson, and West Elcasco.
