This collection contains twelve items once owned by Wayne Delmont Giles. Textbooks, pamphlets, exams, newspaper clippings, and sports memorabilia, including three Georgia Tech decals, are included. Most items are undated, but can be estimated to be from the time that Giles attended Georgia Tech, circa 1928 to 1932.

After leaving Georgia Tech, Giles lived in Smyrna, Georgia, and owned an appliance repair business named Concord Radio and TV Service. He died on 12 April 1994 at the age of 84.
