Arranged in eight groups: I. Vocal scores (16). II. Orchestra parts (81). III. Chorus parts (9). IV. Vocal parts (5). V. Librettos (1). VI. Promptbooks (2). VII. Dialogue parts (10). VIII. Accompanying material (1).

Vocal scores include two imprints by Breitkopf & Härtel (in German), a French edition by A. Durand (1891?), and G. Schirmer's 1897 edition in English and German. Orchestra parts are in manuscript in A. W. Tams wrappers, and the chorus and vocal parts are manuscript, in German. Although the libretto is published, no imprint information is given. It is in German, as are the ms. dialogue parts and one of the promptbooks. The second promptbook is the Schirmer vocal score interleaved with pages of manuscript notes. Accompanying material consists of a newsclipping from The Saint Paul Pioneer Press of April 9, 1926, about a performance of the opera by the Minneapolis Symphony and Chorus.
