The correspondence between Sir and Lady William Osler to Charles Nicoll Bancker Camac forms the bulk of the Earl Nation Collection. Other correspondents include John M. Connor, librarian for the Los Angeles County Medical Association, Clifford Pilz and William Bennett Bean. For the most part, these letters are arranged chronologically and then according to author. The one exception is Clifford Pilz's letter in Folder 3 explaining and enclosing copies of the letters from William Henry Welch to C.N.B. Camac; the letters in this folder are arranged as found in the original collection. The Osler and Camac reproductions span the years 1896-1926, while Earl Nation's later correspondence about the collection covers the years 1960 to 1980. Included are two folders of ephemera, mainly photographic copies of the Osler correspondence. In addition, these folders contain photographs of Sir William Osler and envelopes linking the photos to Earl F. Nation
