Saudek apologises for the delay in replying to his correspondent's letter and continues 'Anyway: here's your postcards signed - and a few modest ones from me - may be you'd like some of them' before concluding 'With a deepest Slavic bow' . At the head of the page Saudek has drawn a black pen, ink and yellow crayon sketch of a knotted rope and beneath his signature he has drawn four drops of water, one in red crayon. Together with one of the signed colour 6 x 4 postcards referred to, being a reproduction of his erotic photograph entitled The Mandoline Lesson (1993), signed with his name alone in silver ink to the black border (some light smudging) and also signed to the verso in black fountain pen ink, again adding small images of four drops of water (one in red crayon) in his hand beneath his signature. Accompanied by the original envelope hand addressed and illustrated by Saudek, with Gertrud Wiese's name appearing in large letters in bold silver ink to a drawing of a clapperboard. VG, 2
