This may or may not be a very recent repository, but Zeiss has a sub site dedicated to historical research for Zeiss products. This includes not only general production related information, but brochures and other ephemera, and also links to a 'virtual museum'. The research landing page is here: www.archive.zeiss.de//dok_start.fau?prj=zeiss&dm=akten&prj=zeiss&dm=akten
Keep in mind that the information is currently available in German, but if your browser supports the ability to auto-translate languages, you may be able to make use of most of what it provides. Further plans include additions to the collections of materials offered, and in future, language specific pages beyond German.
Something I've noticed while browsing... the 'full text' search functionality under the "Research" category can give different results, than doing a text search under "Virtual Museum", so it may be better to try each category separately to glean the most it can offer when doing searches.
