These are signed variously by "Cam" (identified as E. A. Sutherland), E. S. Grogan, and O. F. Hollebone, as well as the unidentified "AHM", "EEY", "JAM", "PAT", and "Pongo". Accompanied by the manuscript draft prospectus for "The K.P. Company - Limited" with signatures of shareholders; and by a printed photograph of classmate Sir Charles Ross.

Several images also appear in a related album of N. W. Paine's housed as Adversaria Album 22, and some images are identified there as of C. W. Moore, the Cambridge rowing coach, classmate and rower R. O. Kerrison and the Jesus College Senior Tutor E. H. Morgan.
