The collection contains a group of roughly ~115 folders created by Fong throughout the course of his research on Oscar Wilde's poetry. Folders may contain an assortment of the following: notes about the provenance of the poem and its variants, a copy of some version of the poem (generally, though not always the copy-text), some commentary from Fong and Beckson, occasional correspondence between Fong and different Wilde scholars, contextual information on Oscar Wilde’s poetry, and the poem’s textual apparatus. The folder may contain a mixture of materials from the days of Fong’s dissertation as well as those from his time during the creation of the OET edition with Karl Beckson. There are files for all 119 poems with the exception of "The Missing Shepherd". Some folders include scans of notes written on the riginal folder within which the materials were originally contained in, or the original folders themselves.
