Self-addressed commercial postcard sent from a tradesman in Wangen to the firm Hanns Kirchmann stating that he cannot take on an assignment due to his old age. Ref: 15.08.1942
The message reads:
Â
'In response to your enquiry of 14 August regarding mounting an oil painting on a blind plate and fixing it in the frame, unfortunately I am no longer able to do this because of my age. My son, who did everything, is still fighting and I have no replacement for him, otherwise I would have been happy to fulfil your request. Let's hope the war ends soon and my son returns in good health, then both of us will have our wishes fulfilled.'
