Ch. Beaujolais of Revelmere, c. 1978

The collection documents the club's activities since its founding in 1936, and is fairly comprehensive in nature.

Club administration includes meeting minutes since the PWCCA inception, as well as its early by-laws and articles of incorporation. Of note are the original handwritten notes from their first and second years of existence which are found in the ledger. The 4 August 1949 meeting minutes were printed on delicate onion paper. The two page minutes were photocopied onto acid-free paper and originals placed in a polypropylene sleeve. A noteworthy item is the extract of minutes, dating from the first meeting in 1936 until 1962, which summarizes all major decisions in the early part of the club’s history. The meeting minutes from 1949 to 1993 were removed from their original binder. Contained within the meeting minutes are also valuable correspondence, incorporation papers, breed standards, membership lists, and other pertinent information.

Financial records are extensive for the years 1999 to 2004, but restricted from public access. These include all manner of bank statements, treasurer's reports, contracts, tax forms, deposits, etc., but also specific material related to club initiatives such as memorial and scholarship funds, publications, and more. Financial ledgers dated 1970 to 1975 are available for review.

Dog shows includes catalogs, photographs, and some premium lists for National Specialties from the early 1970s through early 2000. The correspondence files contain a wealth of other documentation of National Specialty show logistics and planning, as related to photographers, venues, awards, judging, entries, catalog production, and more.

Within Publications are a nearly complete run of the PWC newsletter, which was issued four times a year beginning in November 1961. In addition to numerous breed books, there are substantial runs of the handbook of England's Welsh Corgi League (1958-2007) and the PWCCA's own handbook Corgis in America (1970-2003).

Photographs, Slides, and Illustrations include illustrations made of the breed standard circa 1975, as well as photographs and negatives from the club’s Corgis in America publication, which has been issued each year since circa 1969. Several issues contain not only the image of the dog, but also a pedigree. The bulk of the negatives were placed in negative envelopes whereas a few were stored in Melinex® polyester or polypropylene sleeves. There are several rare photos such as an image of Mrs. Douglas-Redding and Eng. Am. Ch. Sierra Bowhit Pivot, the first American Pembroke champion. This series constitutes the bulk of the collection.
