Postcard from Anton Peschka to Egon Schiele, 17th May 1915

Transcription:

Dear Egon! Do me a favor and get me a revolver through [Heinrich] Böhler.
If not a Browing then a poor man’s model since then I might always have the necessary ammunition.
Please do not think poorly of me! – I really need the weapon.
At any rate, please be quick and let me know soon, very soon! – I am counting
on Böhler, who has an entire arsenal lying around unused, while some would need it
urgently! – Arar [?] is not taking care of us in this respect! Best regards, your teddy bear.

[Address block:]
Mr. Egon Schiele

Vienna – XIII
Hietzinger Hptstr [Hauptstraße] 101.

In May 1915.
Like a Breughel, don’t you think? –
