TLS in German, signed “A. Einstein,” one page, 8.5 x 11, blindstamped personal Princeton letterhead, March 25, 1954. Letter to Dr. Eugenie Anderman in New York, in part (translated): "You can be sure that I have received all your letters and their enclosures. However, the mail has swelled so much in recent years that I would not be able to adequately meet my obligations even if I were to give up all productive work. But I am resisting this with all the strength I have left. Now I would like to thank you very much for the wonderful Vivaldi record. When I have overcome the shock of the birthday, I will leisurely devote myself to the master's work and remember you gratefully." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
Alongside Mozart and Bach, Einstein was also known to enjoy Vivaldi, Schubert, Scarlatti, and Corelli; he himself was an accomplished violinist. Einstein had turned 75 years old on March 14th, and evidently received a Vivaldi record as a gift. A desirable letter by the genius, demonstrating his well-known love of classical music.
