Beschreibung

1 S. 4to. Mit ms. adr. Kuvert. An den Schriftsteller und Bühnenleiter Horst Behrend (1913 1979): You may be surprised to receive a letter from me but it is important that I write to you. As a Minister travelling around the world, I have become aware of a scourge of humanity which respects neither people nor geography. In every country, I have seen the dread results of multiple (disseminated) sclerosis, a chronic, crippling disease which strikes mainly at people between the ages of 20 and 40 [.] I am asking you and other world leaders, not for money, but for a gift that is dear to your heart a painting, jewel, furniture, art object, antique, museum piece, historical document, or the unusual. Each gift, accompanied by a descriptive letter written by your hand will be sold at auction in major cities in the United States. The proceeds will be distributed to universities and hospitals throughout the world interested in MS research [.]". Auf Briefpapier mit gedr. Briefkopf. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 17706
