Kayser, Rudolf / [Ilse Löwenthal-Einstein Kayser / Zohn, Harry / Eva Urgiss-Kayser / Walter ?]

Ilse – Ein Requiem – Signed and inscribed by Rudolf Kayser: “Für Walter zur Erinnerung an uns beide ! – Rudolf Kayser” – [From the library and collection of Harry Zohn with TLS loosely inserted: Typed Letter – signed by Eva Urgiss and addressed to Harry Zohn in New York, 1967. The amazing letter refers to Harry Zohn having alerted her to have found this book in the Rare Book Catalogue of Rare Book Dealer Rosenthal (possibly Bernard & Ruth Rosenthal) and Eva Urgiss is outraged about the fact that this very personal, only privately printed publication, which was only handed out to very few close friends, would have been sold to a rare book dealer and this rare bookdealer having the audacity to offer the book for sale. Eva Urgiss continues to speculate that she knows only of three Walter’s who could have been the recipients and she will investigate. She expresses how happy she is that Harry Zohn has purchased the book.]
