Signature, Düsseldorf, 4 pages, 1850 October 26 (or 29)

Inscribed on the front cover of Lieder-Kreis, op. 39, Leipzig: F. Whistling, undated. Only the front cover and first leaf are present. Name of recipient is illegible: "Fräulein [Jochmann?]." Although place and date are difficult to read, it appears to be "Düsseldorf, den 26ten Oktober 1850." Correspondence held in collections elsewhere indicate that Schumann was in Düsseldorf on October 26th and 29th.
