Sehr geehrter Herr Professor! 1

Für Ihre freundliche Karte 2 vom 26. d. M. sage ich Ihnen besten Dank. Ich war sehr überrascht, dass Sie übersiedelt sind, 3 und wünsche Ihnen für die neue Wohnung und die Sommerreise Glück.Ihre Grüsse und die Ihrer werten Frau erwidere ich herzlich. Hoffentlich erscheinen die Hefte unserer Liebhaber-Ausgabe bald und gelingen so gut wie Ihr „Tonwille„ dessen erstes Heft ich mit grossem Interesse gelesen habe.

Very honored Professor, 1

Thank you for your kind postcard of the 26th of the month. 2 I was very surprised to hear that you have moved, 3 and wish you luck for the new home and your summer trip. I cordially return the greetings from you and your dear wife. Let us hope that the prints of our connoisseur edition will appear soon and be as successful as your Tonwille , the first issue of which I have read with great interest.


With best regards,
Yours very truly,
