Photographs include Flint, Idaho Mining Company buildings, company staff, miners, miner tents and dwellings, camp holiday celebrations, and surrounding scenery including Hard-Up Gulch and Eagle River. Jobs wrote meticulous descriptions to accompany each photograph in the album and listed the names of individuals in the photographs, such as Howard French, the bookkeeper; Smy, the stock keeper; Robert Brewster Stanton, engineer and general manager; Stanton’s daughter, Anna; "Professor" John Duff, the assayer; Dick Parker; Al Lawrence; Balcom, the surveyor for the Rio Grande Rail Road extension from Eagle River to Aspen; and others. The album also includes a group of loose cyanotypes with descriptions written on the back of each photograph that were originally loose between the pages towards the end of the scrapbook.
