The music material includes music manuscripts, many in George's hand or in the hand of orchestrators, arrangers, or copyists; handwritten and typewritten lyric sheets; musical sketchbooks; and printed music. The collection also contains correspondence to family, friends and colleagues, including Merle Armitage, Benjamin and Henry Botkin, Walter Damrosch, Rose Gershwin, Aileen Pringle, Albert Sirmay, Selma Tamber, Rosamond Walling Tirana, and Kurt Weill.

In addition, the collection contains photographs, several drawings by George, programs and publicity materials, legal and financial documents, George's piano, and Ira's typewriter.".
