File consists of one scrapbook featuring a map of Germany on the cover. The scrapbook includes photographs of, and botanical specimens from, the Harburg district of Germany, particularly around Buchholz in der Nordheide and Lüneburger Heide. The scrapbook also includes photographs of young women and girls in Hitler Youth uniforms at what appears to be a camp. There are three quotes in the scrapbook which read:
- "Kein schöner Land in dieser Zeit als hier das unsre weit und breit" [No prettier country at this time than ours here, wide and broad], a German folk song;
- "Auf Fahrt und Lager so lernen wir unsere Heimat kennen." [By riding and camping we get to know our native land].
- "Grösseres als mein Vaterland Deutschland kenne ich nicht!" [greater than my homeland Germany I know not], excerpt from a speech given by Adolf Hitler at the Sportpalast in Dresden on July 23, 1932.
