ALS in German, signed “Freud,” one page both sides, 5.25 x 8.25, personal "Prof. Dr. Freud" letterhead, April 21, 1912. Handwritten letter to the medical doctor, writer and poet Hugo Salus, in part (translated): "Accept our most sincere thanks for the kind reception of 'Imago,' which indeed requires sympathy to sustain itself in the hostile world. Your sonnet also once again shows that psychoanalysis does not always fantasize but often only discloses what was kept secret. However, please do not be displeased if I do not firmly commit to publishing it in Imago, where we currently lack the space for it. Rather, with your consent, I would prefer to transfer it to the Zentralblatt für Psychoanalyse, which has been paying attention to confirmations of our propositions in poetic works for some time. As you know, it is the same publisher as Imago." In fine condition, with a short split to the central horizontal fold. Accompanied by an export certificate from the French Ministry of Culture. A significant letter by Dr. Freud, acknowledging the adoption of his psychoanalytic practices by members of the arts community. In 1912, Salus's sonnet 'Der Knabe' appeared in No. 12 of the Zentralblatt für Psychanalyse und Psychotherapie, a publication co-edited by Sigmund Freud.
