Items include: clippings of Eldridge's poems published in Grand Junction newspapers; clipped newspaper articles by and about Eldridge, including obituary notices; business and calling cards for Eldridge, his daughter Jennie, and her husband, Denver chemist E. T. Herrmann; a psychographic profile of Eldridge; and postcards and pamphlets printed with Eldridge's poems.
