ALS in German, signed “Freud,” one page on a 5.75 x 4 postcard, July 10, 1930. Letter to Dr. Theodor Reik, in full (translated): "Just received letter and book for which I thank you most cordially. Wishing you and your wife a nice time.” Addressed on the reverse in Freud’s hand, including a second signature, “Freud,” in the return address area. Matted with windows on both sides and in fine condition, with a central vertical fold. Reik had been one of Freud's first students in Vienna, however he came under scrutiny for practicing medicine without a license. Despite support from Freud, Reik was banned from practicing medicine and left for the United States. Despite being largely dismissed by the American medical establishment, Reik became a pioneer of lay analysis in the US and founded the National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis. A desirable association piece. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
