Although Goodyear's eleven scrapbooks bear inclusive dates, few of the individual clippings are dated. Evident are clippings from the Stockton Daily Evening Record, Stockton Record, San Francisco Call Bulletin, and the San Francisco Examiner. Clippings report on military actions in Europe and the Pacific. Most of the scrapbooks have approximately 40 pages.

Charles H. Goodyear (1882-1949) compiled these World War II scrapbooks from Stockton and San Francisco newspapers. Charles Goodyear was employed as an inventor in the creative department of Fiberboard Products, Inc. in Stockton for the last fifteen years of his life.

Collection is open for research.
