JOSEF HOFFMANN
Autograph Letter SIGNED, in German, with two Illustrations, 3 pp on one 8vo sheet, n.p. but Vienna, n.d. With SIGNED holograph envelope.
Hoffmann draws two sketches to explain his instructions to Wilhelm Jonasch (1892-1961) artist and designer known for the textiles he created for the Weiner Werkstatte. Hoffmann asks Jonasch to take a box which can be found in a cabinet to a meeting. To be clear which cabinet Jonasch should find the box in, Hoffmann draws both cabinet and box. Signed in full in the letter and signed, "Professor Hoffmann" on the envelope. With such clear direction, one would imagine Jonasch delivered the box to the meeting.
