Catalogue description Fritz Meitner

Fritz Meitner was an engineer who died in a mountaineering accident. Only one item (postcard, 1926) survives, and no material of his wife, Clarissa, but Frisch maintained correspondence with his son Johannes (Hanno) who settled in America until his death in 1974. The correspondence runs 1939 (1 letter only), 1953-73. There is also correspondence, 1974-77, with Richard Meitner (son of John Meitner, grandson of Fritz Meitner, a glass designer working in Holland).
