OJ 10/3, [69] Typewritten picture postcard from Deutsch to Schenker, dated October 6,
1927
Deutsch regrets that Drei Masken Verlag has not yet sent Schenker his
complimentary copies [of the second Meisterwerk yearbook]; they will send an invoice for the
production costs. Hoboken ought to receive an honor from the Austrian state only after the
Photogrammarchiv is up and running. Deutsch has much to show Schenker from the first
editions of Beethoven sonatas. He wants to arrange a time to go through the corrections to
Schubert’s Symphony in B minor.

Deutsch has seen Otto Vrieslander, who surprisingly did not mention the recent
publication of his songs. He explains how different early print-runs of Beethoven’s works
may display telling differences, and how parallel publications in different cities could
sometimes show changes attributable to the composer (as is typically found in
Chopin).

Urlinie in Schubert's Waltz Op. 9 (D. 365), No. 5, and Beethoven's Sonata Op. 10, No.
2.
