Description

All work and no play makes for a dull physicist: Einstein goes fishin’!

ALS in German, signed “A.E.,” one page both sides, 5.75 x 4.25, Berlin-Charlottenburg, postmarked October 8, 1929. Three months after being awarded the Max Planck Medal by Max Planck, Einstein goes fishin’. Translated, in full: “Dear Mrs. Lebach! I propose Thursday for the fishing party. I shall be at the aeronautic port in any case. The telephone has been out of order, unfortunately. With kind regards for you both, Yours. A.E. Please turn this over! No answer from Holland. It would be, perhaps, advisable to call here in the meantime to the firm, and tell them that I have written to Professor Holst.” Accompanied by the English translation. In fine condition. COA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
