Fonds consists of a copy of P.H. Bick's biographical work of his father, Arthur Hardie Bick, during the latter's service in the First World War, entitled, "My Father's War: Major Arthur Hardie Bick, DSO, Canadian Corps Artillery, 1914-1919".

Fonds consists of maps and plans relating to Defence Scheme #1; blueprints of miscellaneous offices and canteen at Base Headquarters -- Building 12 - Canadian Forces Base, Kingston, Ontario.
The journal/commonplace book contains roughly 40 pages. There appear to be pages which have been cut out, and material has been pasted in. The content is varied and the book seems to have been used and reused at different points in Stretton's travels as there is a mix of European drawings with those of Canada. There are eight documentary pen and ink watercolours depicting Canadian content: "Carioling on the St. Lawrence" (1823); "Canadian Marche donc Cariole"; "Colonel Frobishers Cariole"; "Islands of Ice off the Banks of Newfoundland, June 7th and 10th, 1818"; "Falls of the Chaudiere near Quebec, Canada" (1824); "Pageantry (French-Canadian) Aug 14, 1823"; and, "A Quebec Indian and Squaw" (1824). Also included is a copy of a hand drawn plan of Quebec (city) for 1824, and wash over pencil (graphite) drawings of: a cave scene at Quebec; a waterfall at Quebec; the Albany Barracks; Tintern Abbery, Wales; Stonehenge; and a few other drawings with non-Canadian content. There are snippets of recorded weather, a recipe for lavender water, clippings on various subjects (curling being one), and a rather lengthy report of the Halifax Sledge Club from 1843.
Fonds consists of correspondence with colleagues; course material; the pattern for, and photographs of, the sweater commissioned by Queen's University at Kingston, and designed and knitted by Mabel Corlett, for presentation to H.R.H. Prince Charles, following his receipt of an Honorary LL.D. during the University's Sesquicentennial celebrations.
Fonds consists of family prints and photographs of his time in the Royal Canadian Air Force, stationed at Summerside, Prince Edward Island, during the Second World War.
