Footnotes1 Writing of this postcard is recorded in Schenker's diary at OJ 4/1, p. 3252 (September 5, 1928): "An Fl. (K.): wie sein u. des Kindes Befinden; erinnere an die Tafel." ("To Floriz (postcard): how he and his child are; I remind him of the [Urlinie] graph.") The removal of the postage stamp has resulted in the loss of some of Schenker's handwritten date: this is taken from the diary entry and the postmark. |
