Wieser´, one page, 4to, Zurich, 30th August 1960, on his printed stationery, in German. Wieser states in part `At that point you told me you were collecting autographs. Unfortunately, so far I have not been able to send you the signatures of personalities that could be considered. Perhaps there are still opportunities at the conferences I will attend this fall in Holland and Denmark. You may be interested in the attached signature of the well-known American evangelist Billy Graham, who currently has the well-known television host ''Cordelia'' signed at the Swiss radio and television exhibition.´ Also including a printed professional card of Professor Paul Wieser.
