: James B. Dudley High School reunion ribbon, Class of 1940; This ribbon was worn by Lt. Colonel Andrew Johnson ( -1992), a native of Greensboro and a 1940 graduate of Dudley High School.

: Photograph album; This album, containing primarily black and white images, is mostly undated but most seem to date from Andrew Johnson's years at Dudley High School in Greensboro. There are also some much later color photographs at the end, including some of Johnson as an older man. This album is an invaluable and rare visual record of his fellow students and of school activities, including: sports, clubs and organizations and various events. Johnson became interested in photography early in his life, and he may have acquired some of these photographs. Several are "official" Dudley High School images, such as the image of the 1939 graduating class of 1939 on the front page of the May 1939 Panther's Claw newspaper..

: The panther's claw [Dudley High School student newspaper]; This is the first page of the May 1939 (Volume 8, Issue 5) edition of Dudley High School's student newspaper.
