Content and physical description
ContentOn 20 December [1950] Karel Boleslav Jirák received a message from [Karel] Šebánek saying that he had sent Martinů the scores of KBJ's compositions together with Bohuslav Martinů's compositions. KBJ has been waiting until now, but has not yet received the message, and therefore asks whether he has received BM's consignment or is awaiting it, or whether BM has not already sent Jirák his compositions. KBJ is reimbursing Martin's expenses in the amount of $7. KS had previously written that he could not send the KBJ compositions because they are state property, which KBJ does not know, but it is certainly a great honor for the manuscripts.
