Przemysl, 1914. Knoller és Fia ny. 48p.

On the title page, a dedication to the author's later fellow prisoner of war: "Lampel Albert zászlós barátomnak bajtársi szeretettel Gyóni Géza" (To my friend Ensign Albert Lampel, with comradely love, Géza Gyóni), above which is an autographed poem: "Przemysl az Éhségnek megadta magát – De azért, kuruczok még nem jójczakát" (Przemysl surrendered to hunger – But that doesn't mean the Kurucs have had their last laugh).

The first edition, published in the Galician fortress, despite its large print run, is extremely rare.


With:

Autographed letter from Albert Lampel, deputy director of the Hungarian Bank of Békéscsaba, to Andor Tevan, addressed as "Kedves Andor" (Dear Andor).

He thanks him for his efforts in selling the volume in his possession. He considers the two million crowns offered to be too little compared to the four million crowns he originally asked for. His offer is two and a half million crowns.
