He was largely self-taught in each of these disciplines, building his success on his ability to reconceive the classical tradition in architecture for the needs and desires of his wealthy, powerful clients. This collection contains materials related to Platt's personal and professional lives, the bulk originating from Platt's office in the form of project drawings, photographs, and records documenting architectural projects from 1901-1933.

The large majority of these projects were located in the California Bay Area, with a few elsewhere in California, Nevada, and Utah. Most of the drawings are graphite on tracing paper, the remainder are prints of various types. The project files consist mainly of specifications and proposals for Minton's projects, with a very few photographs. A small group of office records and professional papers complements these project records. Lastly, the collection also includes a smaller number of drawings and files for projects designed by Henry's son, John G. Minton, who continued his father's practice and often contributed additions and alterations to his father's earlier work.
