October 12 TuesdayJohn G. Kreer (“U.S.A.”), S. Von Armon (S.F. Cal. U.S.A.”), F. Goldschmidt, L. E. Schlemm (“N.Y. U.S.A.”), and Hugo Viewega (“Hannover”) each signed a picture postcard to Sam. The text of the card, in German, appears to be the same hand as Viewega’s. The card pictures Marktkirche – Altes Rathhaus, and Liebniz – Haus in Hannover. The translation: “To the peoples’ favorite humorist, who lies sick in Vienna, a group of Americans and Germans, sitting together over a glass of wine, send cordial greetings and best wishes for a speedy recovery” [MTP]. Note: thanks to Holger Kersten for the translation.
