Branch Reichenberg Nr. 11173 Member of the Chamber of Fine Arts State Secretary Karl Hermann Fr a n k Prag IV Czerninpalais. of the Saaislekretücs b n Reidspeotektor in Bühmen and Moravia. Eing.: 10.JUNI 1942 I would like to present to you in the supplement a short report on the founding general meeting of the Kunstverein Sudetenland, which took place on 8.10.1941. As you can see from this, the Kunstverband has set itself the task of promoting the development of our sudetenGerman artists. This promotion is not only intended in a purely material form; rather, we want to give the artist the opportunity to develop his talent by awarding commissions to him and buying artistically high-quality works from him. Assuming that you are benevolent towards the efforts of the association, I would like to send you a declaration of accession in the annex with the request to send it back to me. At the same time, for your more detailed information, I agree with the statutes of the club. 1s 2 attachments. Heil Hitler! LB. Fiba The managing director in St. x C-252/41 R/0250
