Description: 1938 Postcard F. M. Trautz German Institute Kyoto Japan RARE Friedrich Max Trautz (1877–1952) was a prominent Japanologist who played pivotal roles in fostering German-Japanese cultural exchange during the interwar period. He served as the inaugural German director of the Japan Institute in Berlin from 1926 to 1930 and later became the first director of the German Research Institute in Kyoto, serving from 1934 to 1938. This postcard, dated January 31, 1938, was sent from Berlin, Germany, via Siberia. As I do not understand German, I relied on an online translator. "Thank you very much, esteemed Professor, for your most sincere wishes for the New Year that I just received. Since it's never too late to congratulate, I would like to warmly reciprocate your wishes and express my gratitude, with fond memories of our shared beautiful moments in Kyoto. Yours faithfully." It seems to be signed by A. Oster(?). Japanese postcards sent from abroad and addressed to Trautz in German Institute in Kyoto are difficult to find! https://morse-trautz-japan.blogspot.com INTERNATIONAL buyers who are interested in buying multiple items from us, let me know BEFORE you click and pay.
