Meyendorff's papers consist of correspondence, manuscripts, notes, and printed materials. The papers concern Russian statesman Petr Stolypin. The manuscripts (which are in English) are grouped under the title "A Brief Appreciation of P. Stolypin's Tenure of Office," and touch upon many different aspects of his career. Notes and correspondence are also on this topic. Among the correspondents is Vladimir Kokovt︠s︡ov.

The papers consist of correspondence and notes. The correspondence is made up of letters to I︠A︡khontov concerning his memoirs about the Council of Ministers from pre-revolutionary officials, including Vladimir Kokovt︠s︡ev, Pavel Ignatév, and Vsevolod Shakhovskoĭ. The notes are minutes taken at the meetings of the Council of Ministers; these exist as both the original handwritten notes and as typed copies. Finally, there is a brief memoir by I︠A︡khontov concerning World War I, and a printed copy of the announcement by Nicholas II that World War I had been declared.

Collection includes Flige's memoirs, which discuss such topics as his childhood and education; ballet and theatre; Kiev and St. Petersburg; his great-uncle, N.Kh. Bunge, his father-in-law V.N. Kokovt︠s︡ov, and Sergeĭ Witte; and of the 1917 Revolution. There are also essays by him on such topics as insurance companies, on the business world of St. Petersburg, and on agrarian issues. Notes and materials collected by Flige evidently relate to a planned book on the fate of the Imperial family during the Revolution. Printed materials include M. Gert︠s︡enshteĭn's, "Agrarnyĭ vopros" (1906), and Aleksandrov's, "Nekotorye dannyi︠a︡ po agrarnomu voprosu" (1917).

The papers consist of correspondence, manuscripts, subject files, and printed materials. Correspondence includes letters by Vladimir Kokovt︠s︡ov, and letters concerning the posthumous publication of Kryzhanovskiĭ's memoirs. Manuscripts include drafts of these memoirs and other items by Kryzhanovskiĭ. There are also manuscripts, chiefly memoirs, by other persons; most were evidently sent to Kryzhanovskiĭ as editor of the emigre journal "Russkai︠a︡ Letopis"́ in the 1920s, but were never published. They deal with such topics as the Imperial police and government and the 1917 Revolution and the Civil War. There is a large group of manuscripts and related printed items, evidently prepared by Kryzhanovskiĭ, on the projected governmental system of a post-Bolshevik Russia. Subject files deal with the 1917 Revolution, emigre monarchism, and other topics.
