Dear Mr. Broad,
Your two letters arrived on time, but not the attached books. Your publishing house seems to suffer from chronic constipation.
This is it for today, because essentially it is appropriate that I inform you of something in time
Congratulations on your trip and everything else
Yours,
Albert Einstein
Official stationery. Size 30x18 cm. very good condition, folding marks, light stains.
The English translation of the letter was done by us from the Hebrew translation, if you can read Hebrew you can change the language settings and get an accurate academic translation.
