Their assassination in Sarajevo sparked a series of events that led, four weeks later, to World War I. Rare ALS in German, signed " Furstin Hohenberg," one page both sides, 4.25 x 3.5, monogrammed stationery card, April 12, 1904. An untranslated handwritten letter from Sophie, Duchess of Hohenberg. In fine condition, with light soiling.
