The semi-cataloged collection is alphabetically-arranged into Documents, Manuscripts, Correspondence, Photographs, and Ephemera.

A series of photographs contains images of members of the Walker and Green Families and their estates in Surrey, England and Los Angeles, California, respectively. The final series of ephemera contains printed announcements, monographs, copies from monographs, address and birthday books, and the passports of Mildred Browning Green and Lucius Peyton Green.
