Some things he('d) sent (to) me.

It was my boss. He asked me if I wanted to/would take a look at some things he('d) sent (to) me.


What would be the most natural way to phrase this sentence to you? (note: the boss had sent the 'things' to him before their phone conversation)

Is it clear that "he'd" would mean "he had" here?
