The Phipps-Mackenzie Collection consists of four series. The textual series contains surveying journals and reports mostly related to the Bedaux Expedition and other surveys which took place in northern BC, correspondences and reports from the time when Phipps was working at South Africa with the Bedaux Company, as well as personal documents which belong to A. H. Phipps and his wife, Dorothy E. Phipps (nee Sommers). The photographic series holds three photo albums most of which are related to surveying northern BC in 1929, 1930 and 1935, and some loose photos which mostly reflect Phipps' involvement in the Bedaux Expedition in 1934. The cartographic series includes a map of the traveled route of the surveyors of the Bedaux Expedition. The ephemera series holds two wallets and an award pin.
