Nearly all of the items contained in this album are newspaper clippings. Most of them pertain to Lee's term as governor or the period after he retired from politics. Two major topics covered in these articles are the 1978 Salt Lake City city-county unification vote, as well as some late-1970s retrospectives of Lee's political career. A notable letter is written by Salt Lake City mayor Ted Wilson in 1979, thanking Lee for his support in the vote for city-county unification.

Consisting almost entirely of newspaper clippings, this album documents Lee's term as governor of Utah. Of interest is a letter to Lee's mother, Mrs. Arthur J. Lee, to attend her son's first gubernatorial inauguration at the state capitol.
Albums, 1955-1956
Newspaper articles make up the entirety of this album. They cover topics such as Lee's refusal to pay his 1955 income taxes and Lee's disapproval of foreign aid. Because the tape that originally held the clippings in the album became brittle and lost its adhesiveness, the articles were removed from the original album and placed in an acid-free folder.
