[AFTANAZY Roman]. Correspondence card with typed letter (with handwritten annotation and signature) from Roman Aftanazy to Zdzislaw Najder, dated. 14 VI 1977 in Wroclaw.
The author of the letter thanks the author for the photos he sent from Biala Cerkiew, and hopes to use them in his publication (perhaps he is referring to the unsigned photo of the Biala Cerkiew church taken in 1977 and included in vol. 11 of "The History of the Residence"). Under the typescript text, handwritten compliments and signature with full name. Very good condition.
R. Aftanazy (1914-2004) - historian and librarian, associated almost throughout his professional life with the Ossolineum Library in Lviv and Wroclaw. Aftanazy's life's work was the eleven-volume "History of Residences on the Former Borderlands of the Republic" (1986-1993 and 1991-1997), materials for which he collected at his own expense since the interwar years. He willingly shared his vast knowledge with others, as evidenced by the letters offered here. It is clear from them that the phrase ending one of the letters: "It will give me great pleasure if I still prove useful to you in anything" was not just a formula of politeness.
