The remaining letter from Gustav Mahler (photographic copy) is dated 29 September 1897 and is on Hof-Operntheater letterhead. Of the total 4 items from Bahr-Mildenburg, 1 is addressed to Gustav Mahler (undated; published in Willnauer's edition with the date 18 August 1902?); and the remaining 3 items are addressed to Alma Mahler (1 dated in 1913 and 2 in 1931).
