Subseries ii contains workshop documents, including opus lists.

Negatives

The photographic negatives are divided into three subseries: Wolff organs with opus number, Wolff organs without opus number, and non-Wolff organs.

Photographs

The photographs in this series cover the several stages of the organ-building process. This series includes both colour and black-and-white images of the construction of a given organ at Wolff’s atelier, the installation of the organ, as well as concerts, dedications, and social events at or around the time of the organ’s installation.
