Manuscript letter, written in black ink on both sides of a single sheet. The letter, dated January 1964 finds Dieter Roth in typical ebullient form, starting with the initial greeting, ?Lieber Caspar David Friedrich?, and continuing with a caustic rebuttal of Dietrich earlier supposedly fawning mailing: ?Vielen guten sch�nen Dank f�r die vielen Arsche und das ganze Lecken!? (Many thanks for the many arses and all the licking!). The letter goes on to discuss the proposal of publishing a book, and Roth offering to send Dietrich a photo of his ?Manuskripts (mit den L�chen)? or manuscripts with the holes, together with a copy of his poster for the Amsterdam Stedelijk exhibition ?Bewogen Beweging? (1961). Letter is folded twice in order for it to fit into the original airmail envelope which is also present.
