These photographs include Trimble with Presidents Truman, Kennedy, and Johnson, as well as Arkansas state and national politicians. Family photographs include the Trimbles, and Mrs. James W. Trimble's family, the Maples and McQuown's. Other photographs are of Berryville, Clarke's Academy in Berryville, the Buffalo National River, photographic post cards and Christmas cards, and sketches.
