Description

Additional material includes Czechoslovakian and German seminar announcements

An unidentified item, probably a printed booklet (based on the size of the frame cut into the preceding leaves that would have surrounded the document) has been removed from one of the endleaves

Most of the letters in this volume were written by Mach to Eduard Kulke. Other correspondents include Josef Popper-Lynkeus and Paul Tausig

The identity of the original owner of the scrapbook and collector of the materials is unknown. A note in the Dibner Library's provenance file speculates that the scrapbook was put together in 1938, but the source of that information is not given
