In this long letter, Deutsch seeks to explain Vrieslander’s behavior with regard to the purchase of materials from an unscrupulous antiquarian dealer, and also to account for Hoboken’s treatment of Vrieslander as a consequence. --- He accepts that funds to set up a journal linked to the Photogram Archive are not unlimited, but understands why Schenker cannot devote as much of his own time to the project as Hoboken might expect. --- He describes Hoboken as a childish character, with little understanding of the world of ordinary people, who might nevertheless ultimately produce a good piece of scholarship.
