The collection includes CCC photographs   from camps (at least some are in Virginia), as well as a number of family photographs  . Most of the photographs   are not identified or dated, though some have notes on the edges. Those items with dates come from the 1920s and 1930s.

Photographs   from the CCC camps include barracks, landscapes, and groups and individuals at work and leisure activities. Several photographs   are identifed as CCC Camp P-57 in Hot Springs, Virignia; locations around Covington, Virginia; and locations around Bald Knob in West Virginia. The majority of the candid family and individual photographs   are unidentified, though some have handwritten notes around the edges.
