Footnotes

1 Receipt of this postcard is recorded in Schenker's diary at OJ 4/5, p. 3672, October 22, 1931: "Von Karpath (K.): will selbst ein Schriftstück ausstellen!" ("From Karpath (postcard): he will set out something in writing himself"").

2 This probably concerns the matter discussed on OJ 12/9, [28].
