The collection consists of three main items: posters, news and magazine clippings, and Radio Guide magazines. The posters are eclectic in taste, and focus on art, Indigenous rights, and advertisements. The Radio Guide material consists of supporting textual material like correspondence, reports, marketing strategies, and the magazines themselves. The news clippings come from a variety of sources.

The collection consists of roughly 20,000 audio disc records, all in 78rpm format. The recordings span predominantly from 1917 to 1942, when the Musician’s strike took effect due to disagreements between musicians and recording companies over royalty payments. Starting July 31st 1942, union musicians could no longer record. This lasted roughly two years, with various recording companies settling with the union at varying points between 1943 and 1944. Healey deliberately collected records from before this important date in musical history. The records are largely Jazz recordings, representative of the first twenty-five years of Jazz music, with Blues, Ragtime, Dixieland, Dance Band music, entertainment personalities, Swing, and many other genres and sub-genres of the era represented within the collection. Healey started collecting 78s by the time he was ten years old, and by the time of his death in 2008, had amassed roughly 30,000 78s of this kind. Upon his death, many of the more valuable records were sold to collectors from around the world, and thus this collection contains about 20,000 from his original collection. The recordings from this collection were used by Jeff Healey for his first radio show on University of Toronto’s CUIT, and his show on CBC radio, My Kinda Jazz, which also aired on Toronto-based radio station, Jazz.FM91.

The majority of the records are from American record labels, though there are also a fair number from the Compo Company Ltd., based in Lachine, Quebec, and its various offshoots, and some other Canadian companies. There are also some records manufactured in England, France and even Germany, though all are by American recording artists, and often by American record labels with branches abroad.

Based on the period, the majority of the records are likely shellac, not vinyl, but exact materials likely vary by manufacturer. There are also a small number of “flexible” records made from Durium, a patented blend of paper and resin, manufactured during the depression era, as cheaper alternatives to the standard shellac records. The collection also includes a small number of Edison Discs, also referred to as “Diamond Discs”, which are recognized for their distinctive quarter-inch thickness. Most records are unique in the collection, but there are some duplicates.

Prior to his death, Healey began digitizing his collection of records to mp3 format, and inputting information via iTunes. These digital files have not yet been acquired.

Canadian Talent Library (1962): The first set of music (10 disc LPs) published in 1962 by the Canadian Talent Library.

Though the set was expressly made for radio stations, select copies were given to notable Canadians. This copy, is noteworthy as it is embossed “Dr. Mabel G. Connell”.
The set includes LPs by Johnny Burt (solo), Howard Cable & His Orchestra, Vic Centro Sextet, Johnny Burt & His Orchestra, Rust Davis & His Orchestra, Bill Butler, Paul Grosney Group, Roger Pilon & His Orchestra, Alexander ‘Ragtime’ Read, and Howard Cable ‘Conducting’.
