The bulk of the Agrasánchez Collection of Mexican Cinema consists of 400 movie posters, approximately 2,400 lobby cards, and approximately 8,000 still photographs of cine mexicano from 1931 through 1992. The posters, lobby cards, and stills are organized alphabetically within their respective series. The collection also includes a number of additional materials such as flyers, broadsides, and VHS videos. All of the items in the collection (excluding VHS movies) are originals that were meant to promote the Mexican movies for which they were created. The collection measures 27 linear feet, plus 400 posters and 103 cataloged videos and is arranged into 5 series: Posters, Lobby Cards, Stills, Various Materials, and Mexican Movies.

The materials in the collection represent a wide variety of genres and dates in the history of Mexican cinema. The film titles vary from format to format (posters, lobby cards, stills, VHS videos), although many of the titles can be found in more than one category. For example, there are still photographs and the VHS movie for Santa (1931), Mexico's first motion picture with sound, and there are a poster and a set of stills for Sargento Capulina (1981), one of the later films represented in the collection. In one of his books Agrasánchez describes the types of films in Mexican cinema in six main genres: comedia, cabareteras, charros y folklor, historia y religión, melodrama, and misterio y aventura. All of these genres are represented in the in the Agrasánchez Collection of Mexican Cinema. There are materials for comedies such as Romeo y Julieta starring Cantinflas and Mátenme porque me muero with Tin-Tan and Tongolele, as well as cabaret films like Coqueta featuring Ninón Sevilla and Agustín Lara. Classic "Mexican cowboy" movies are characterized with films such as Cartas marcadas starring Pedro Infante and Marga López and Allá en el rancho grande with Jorge Negrete. El joven Juárez with Humberto Almazán and María Elena Marques and María Magdalena featuring actress Medea de Novara represent the history and religion category. Also noteworthy in the collection are melodramas like María Candelaria starring Dolores del Río and Rio Escondido starring María Felix, both of which helped to make these actress two of the most beloved in cine mexicano history. Finally, there are numerous materials denoting the mystery and adventure movies of Mexico's past inlcluding many with the lucha libre stars like Santo, Blue Demon, and Mil Mascaras, as well as other types of horror films without the famed masked wrestlers.

The Posters, found in series one of the collection, each measure roughly 37 inches tall by 27 inches wide and are housed in flat files, five posters per file. The poster designs range from simple with cartoons and drawings to more elaborate with multiple photographs. Some of the posters are printed on fragile, newprint-type paper, and some are on slick, glossy paper. Most of the posters list actors' and directors' names, as well as production company information.

The second series consists of Lobby Cards, so called because they were made to be hung in theatre lobbies. There are about eight lobby cards per film title. They contain identically printed designs and promotional information, with each card displaying a different still photograph from the movie. The lobby cards measure 11 inches tall by 14 inches wide.

Stills, series three, are grouped in folders by film title, usually twelve or fewer stills per film. The stills are 8 by 10 inch black and white photographs showing various scenes and characters from the films.

The fourth series, Various Materials, contains a folder of flyers called "Press Sheet" distributed by Azteca Films, Inc. and a folder of flyers called "Box Offic Tonic/Refuerce su taquilla" distributed by Clasa-Mohme, Inc. films. Both of these sets of flyers are printed in English and Spanish with promotional information and copies of photos meant to advertise individual films. Also in Various Materials is a folder of broadside-size posters printed and distributed by Azteca Films, Inc.

There are also 103 Mexican Movies which Rogelio Agrasánchez, Jr. donated to the Benson Latin American Collection at the time when his collection was acquired. Many of these movies are considered classics of Mexican cinema. These VHS videos have been cataloged and can be found by searching the University of Texas Libraries online catalog (UTNetCat) by the film's title. These titles are listed in the Box and Folder Inventory as series five.
