Collection
This collection contains memoranda, letters, briefing papers, and reports that President Gerald Ford initialed or otherwise annotated along with a small number of documents entirely in his hand. Gertrude Fry of the Staff Secretary's Office selected the documents from among those found in the Oval Office outbox. Even if a document case contained handwriting on only one page, Fry placed the entire case in the Handwriting File.
This collection covers most Ford administration topics, but researchers should note its limitations. Many documents from the President's outbox contained no annotations, so Fry just stamped them "The President has seen" and sent them to the White House Central Files. In addition, the Handwriting File seldom reflects White House staff work before or after an issue was referred to the President. It is probable, especially for the first half of the administration, that some handwriting items relating to national security matters were returned to the National Security Council or other agencies.
President Ford seldom added extensive comments or notes to documents. Usually he merely initialed them, placed a check mark next to the option he preferred, or added a brief note such as "Send to Jack Marsh for handling." These documents are significant because they were seen by the President and often reflect his decisions.

Collection
This bulk of this collection documents the social aspects of being President Gerald Ford's Chief Counsel. A significant portion of this collection is made up of newspaper clippings from major newspapers such as The New York Times and Washington Post, which attest to social functions and events the Buchens attended. Some of the correspondence and notations in the calendars depict the Buchen's as parents and grandparents, while others depict them as friends to the Presidential family, ambassadors, and celebrities.
Notable are the opinions that come forth in this collection, specifically from Philip Buchen (in his speeches and participation in various conferences) and his wife Bunny (in her "diary"). The estimations of others are also well-represented, especially regarding the Richard Nixon pardon.
A shortcoming of this collection is the absence of materials dating from the beginning of Ford's and Buchen's friendship to the time of Ford's Vice Presidency. There are references to this period and the Ford and Buchen law firm, particularly in the oral histories, and some of the clippings and speeches, but for the most part, this period is left undocumented.

This collection contains Peter Rodman's chronological file documenting the handling of letters addressed to National Security Advisers Henry Kissinger or Brent Scowcroft, reminders to the National Security Adviser about matters requiring his attention, and a fragmentary subject file concerning several foreign policy issues. A few important documents appear, including a handwritten memorandum of conversation of Henry Kissinger's discussions with President Asad of Syria on Aug. 23, 1975 and original maps associated with the negotiation of the Sinai Accords.
