The majority of the collection deals with Vaughan's trip to Asia with Ruth St. Denis, Ted Shawn and the Denishawn Dancers in 1925. Boxes 1 and 2 contain the following kind of material: Clifford Vaughan's music notebooks, photographs, postcards, booklets, maps, programs and ephemera all regarding the trip. Also included is some ephemera about Clifford Vaughan (a biography of Vaughan, written after his death, and order forms for his music on CDs) and the Denishawn Dancers, mostly clippings, several publications owned by Vaughan, probably purchased during the trip, as well as programs for the Denishawn Dancers and a Tribute to Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn by "H. H." Box 1 also contains a folder of modern letters regarding the Denishawn Dancers and their history; these are between Jane Sherman Lehac, Margaret Vaughan Meyer, and Michelle Mathesius. Box 3 contains copies of CDs of Clifford Vaughan music as well as three record Albums, "Oriental Translations I-VI." Box 4 contains 31 pieces of sheet music, arranged alphabetically by title. The majority of these are also from the trip to the Asia (1926); some of these are photocopies. It also contains the 10 oversize programs from Box 2.

Much of the correspondence deals with collecting anecdotal material for Kenealy's short biography of William Maginn. The collection also includes many letters written by Kenealy and printed material related to his work.
