In full (translated): “Thank you very much for your letter and for your instructive essay on cities, rates, and fees; it addresses an actual problem which is, especially in Munich, quite harassing. The city planners and the City Council have a very difficult task to fulfill, and an even greater responsibility to bear, and I feel that we physicists have it much easier in some ways.” In fine condition, with two unobtrusive punch holes to left border.
