The correspondence is from friends, family, various figures in the sports world, including Montreal hockey and baseball players, and readers of his column. The manuscripts include two novels and more than 20 short stories written in sports settings, 1930 to 1960. There is a small amount of other materials including newspaper clippings by other sport writers mainly about hockey, photographs, tapes of radio interviews, autographed programmes, notes for articles and publications, a lighter, one metal name plate, one metal press badge for golf tournament in 1971 and one metal plate of the Hamilton Tiger - Cats. Of special interest are approximately 30 letters from Morley Callaghan to Dink Carroll and/or his wife Margaret (Peg) Carroll from 1935 to the 1980's. The letters are addressed variously to Dink Carroll or to both Dink and Peg Carroll. The content covers sports, literary anecdotes and publishing activities, and the activities of mutual acquaintances. They contain observations on Morley Callaghan's writing and working habits as well.

Walsh's private papers are rather formal in nature, consisting largely of certificates of membership in various professional societies and social clubs, awards and medals, official papers such as his commission in the Canadian Army Dental Corps (1940), honorary degrees and the citation upon his appointment as Emeritus Professor (1955). The photographs fall into three classes: those from his student days, both informal snapshots and formal portraits with the Students' Council or sports teams; formal portraits of Walsh alone or in professional groups; and informal photographs with golfing friends.
