Transcripts, created by Frederick Danvers, of selected Dutch documents relating to India and the East held in the State Archives in The Hague. They deal with all activities of the Dutch in the East from the regulation of trade to the treatment of indigenous peoples, and particularly relations with Chinese, French, Spanish, English and Portuguese traders and officials.

The Harold S. Williams collection consists of maps relating to Japan with a few items relating to China and Korea. The maps hold a heavy focus on tourist information on Japan such as tourist brochures and road maps, however political maps, development plans, and artistic impressions of specific areas are also included. William's main collecting focus was on Kobe, as this was his place of residence, however material from larger cities such as Osaka and Tokyo are present.
