Album from Patrick O'Mara’s time as a student at Valkenberg, The Netherlands. The album contains farewell poems in German, Latin, Greek and English by O'Mara’s classmates; a series of photographs and numerous insertions. For preservation reasons the photographs have been removed from the album and are listed below in the order in which they appear. A note in pencil in the album indicates their original position. A photograph of the mill at Valkenburg appears to be missing between J552/ 33 and 34. Unrelated paper insertions have also been listed separately.
