Additional Description

Container Summary

Contains correspondence from TDK to JKK that is only partially dated. The bulk appears to be post World War II. Arrangement is by month and day, although this should not be understood as being strictly chronological since years are unknown. Some of the stationery letterhead bears the address of TDK's second residence in Paris, Rue de Marignac, where he moved after his well-loved apartment building at the Place Vendome was converted into office space. Topics focus on TDK's travels in Europe, reconstruction progress of his house at Senlis in France, and advice to JKK regarding the care of their aunts.
