Congratulations sheet from Raffael Schuster-Woldan
Kurzbeschreibung
The Mosse album was apparently acquired by the antiquarian bookshop Agnes Straub, which dissolved the folders and dismantled front and back pages. Until 1945, several of these sheets were offered and sold as individual autographs so that 39 contributions are missing today.
The sale records of the remaining holdings from the antiquarian bookshop Straub, held by the Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften (Academy of Sciences)document that in 1952, "242 photographs from the Rudolf Mosse Collection (autographs)" reached the "Öffentliche Wissenschaftliche Bibliothek" (Public Scientific Library – a predecessor institution of today's Staatsbibliothek). In 1966 they were finally incorporated into the Handschriftenabteilung (Manuscripts Department) under the call number Alb. amic. 141.
Thanks to the unsold sheet with a red chalk drawing by Raffael Schuster-Woldan and the pencil note "112/393" in the lower right corner with the price 30.- [RM], the antiquarian bookshop Agnes Straub can be determined as the seller of individual sheets of the album. The traces of the antiquarian bookshop, which have been documented many times through provenance research, enable a clear assignment and the resolution of the inconspicuous note as a reference to the offer number 393 in the Straub catalog no. 112 (ca. 1940).
