This collection of material was brought together and held by the Cooke family over a number of generations. It appears to include material from both Lieutenant John Cooke and Lieutenant Duncan Ramsey Kerr Cooke. There are three items in the collection: one holographic journal; one published book; and a holographic compendium of extracts.
The fonds consists of a typescript of an unpublished novel, 'Hard by St. Lawrence'; a manuscript essay, "Make a stand"; articles; and book reviews relating to her book "Miriam of Queen's", which was published in 1921. In addition, news clippings related to MacKinnon and a copy of Miriam of Queen's book are also included.
The fonds consists of architectural drawings and accompanying project files reflecting the solo career of Lily Inglis including projects she undertook in England, Italy, Philadelphia and Kingston. The drawings consist of tracing paper originals, pencil sketches, diazotypes, acetates, sepia diazoa and black line prints of a variety of different sizes.
The fonds consists of mock-ups, prints, original pen and ink drawings, contracts and publicity surrounding the production and sale of the Limestone Calendar between the years of 1985 and 1990.
