Two scrapbooks document Sauceda's career as an actor and contain photographs of Sauceda on set, at premieres, with other actors and the depict movie sets at well-known Las Vegas hotels and casinos in the 1980s and 1990s. Newspaper clippings accompany many of the photographs and provide details about locations, major actors, or the producers for each film. Movies include Cool World, Honey...I Blew Up the Baby, Vegas Vacation, Rocky IV, and Indecent Proposal. The third scrapbook is compiled of newspaper clippings that document the local Las Vegas, Nevada Latinx community and NALA events in the 1970s, ranging from political activism, labor strikes, beauty pageants, and religious gatherings. There are also a number of "Rincon Hispano por Edita Perez" columns clipped from the Las Vegas Sun newspaper within the scrapbook.
