content: A mixed-media scrapbook contains many photographs. Images include cabinet cards of Nichols's grandparents and photos of a military unit labeled as the "Ross Volunteers," although it is unclear how the group is related to Nichols. Also found are photos of Nichols with family and friends; Nichols's home on Noel Road; and works of art. Printed materials concern Nichols's art works and include clippings, exhibition announcements, and catalogs. Also found are scattered letters, examples of his early drawings of animals, and birthday cards.
