The Ku Klux Klan documents collection is comprised of letters, pamphlets, flyers, applications and petitions for membership, as well as pictures, and a Ku Klux Klan robe. Most of the material in this collection dates from the late 1920s and the 1950s, and primarily covers the Klan in New York and North Carolina.

The Michigan Ku Klux Klan photographs consist of five photographs of Ku Klux Klan members from Shiawassee County, Michigan. Pictures depict Klan members in uniform standing by their headquarters, assembling in a street, playing in a marching band, and on a parade float with the signs "Purely 100% American" and "America Today Tomorrow-Forever."

The collection consists of notes, correspondences, newspaper clippings, scrapbooks, drafts and manuscripts of Wyn C. Wade’s book, The Fiery Cross. Also included are a cassette tape, pocket knife, copper money clip and transcripts of interviews with Stetson Kennedy.
