The collection includes clipped recipes, magazine images of food, household and kitchen tips. Most of the food images and recipes are for desserts. Included is a grade on the bottom of the first page, suggesting it was a for a class assignment or project. Many of the clippings have come unglued and the back cover is missing. Though the collection is undated and unattributed, on the back of one of the clippings is an article about Franklin Delano Roosevelt's presidency, dating the collection to no earlier than 1933.
