This series contains approximately 70 drawings on paper presumably by Jane Hansen. Many are signed with the initials JBH and the date 1963 or 1964. The drawings include pencil sketches and chalk pastels and include portraits chiefly of Daniel Hansen, floral designs, animals, and some landscapes. Many of the works look like they may possibly have been created as part of an art class.

This collection contains the professional papers of American landscape architect Florence Yoch (1890-1972) relating to her work designing landscapes and gardens primarily in Southern California, but also in Northern California, Mexico, and other locales, chiefly with her partner Lucile Council (1898-1964) and their firm Yoch and Council. The collection includes approximately 2700 photographs; approximately 250 drawings and renderings, including 163 rolled drawings; approximately 600 postcards; office records; travel journals; research materials; writings; and artifacts. The materials date from 1869 to 2013, with the bulk of the collection relating to Yoch's work from 1918 until shortly before her death and representing 100 of her over 250 projects. The collection also includes research and administrative files of James J. Yoch, Florence Yoch's cousin, comprising photographs, approximately 2500 slides, notes, articles, bibliographies, correspondence, and publicity materials for his book, Landscaping the American Dream: The Gardens and Film Sets of Florence Yoch, 1890-1972 (Harry N. Abrams, Inc./Sagapress, Inc., New York, 1989) and for the exhibition he curated with Eric T. Haskell of Scripps College, "Personal Edens: The Gardens and Film Sets of Florence Yoch," which opened at the Huntington Library in 1992 before traveling to other locations.
