content: Biographical materials include awards, biographical sketches and resumes, membership cards, and a printing block of one of Whinston's abstract paintings. Scattered correspondence is from museums and institutions but also includes letters from Whinston to her family describing a trip to Italy and the exhibition of her work. Organization files are from the many organizations in which Whinston was active, in New York City and national groups. Files may include additional correspondence, financial material, printed material, and scattered photographs. Of note is material dating from Whinston's time as president of the National Association of Women Artists, Inc.
  
Photographs include potraits and snapshots of events, exhibitions, and Whinston's works of art. Also found are photos of her jewelry, likely her personal pieces. General printed material consists of clippings, art bulletins, and exhibition announcements. Subject files concern her exhibitions, travel, and an untitled mural in New York City, New York installed at the corner of W45th Street and the Avenue of the Americas in New York City, New York in which she combined enamel and porcelain. 

Three scrapbooks span Whinston's career and each contain additional biographical material, correspondence, photographs, and printed material concentrating on the exhibition of her art in New York City and throughout the United States.
