Materials that document the artist’s work and process are included as well, such as a list of illustrations planned for his unpublished book, “Adventures in Karki,” (based on his experience in World War I); a fabric binder inscribed by the artist’s wife Jeanne Good: “1970, To: Brandywine River Museum,” which contains artist notes; and an original water color painting.

The first folder contains additions made to the collection at an unknown period. Within this folder is a photocopy of a handwritten document by the artist’s wife Jeanne Good on Stafford Good’s life and career. The original note from Jeanne Good is stored within the curatorial files at the museum.
