Description

Scarce letters from the important economist

Influential economist (1899–1992) known for his defense of classical liberalism, who shared the Nobel Prize in Economics with Gunnar Myrdal for ‘pioneering work in the theory of money and economic fluctuations.’ Collection of four letters in German, all signed “F. A. Hayek,” comprised of three TLSs and one ALS, dated between 1985 and 1988. One TLS is to the economist Horst Claus Recktenwald concerning a publication, discussing a reprint of his 1966 Academy Lecture in a ‘Classics Edition.’ The other three letters are to Michael Tochtermann of the Handelsblatt business newspaper. One of these, in part (translated): “I am looking forward to contribute to making classical works of history of ideas available again.” In overall fine condition, with filing holes to edges and a tear to the corner of one letter. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
