ALS in German, signed “Mahler,” one page, 4.5 x 7, no date [stamped as received on July 8, 1907]. Letter to German concert promoter Emil Gutmann, in full (translated): "Of course I am available as I am leaving for America only around the 10th of January.—I’d be happiest if the stint, as previously discussed, were to take place the end of October or beginning of November. The program is all right with me also. However I must insist that the Kaim Orchestra must rehearse the 5th Symphony thoroughly ahead of time because it is very difficult especially for strings (much more difficult than the 6th.) I must now ask you to give me a definite date as soon as possible so I can arrange the rest of my schedule accordingly.” In fine condition. Excellent content from the great composer, who was often a guest conductor for the Munich Philharmonic (originally known as the Kaim Orchestra). Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
