Correspondence: Speier to Nobile, 1937 - 1940
Scope and Contents
This folder contains dated letters, telegrams, and letter drafts written by Hermine Speier to Umberto Nobile between 1937 and 1940. It contains one letter from 1937, 9 letters from 1938, 12 letters and a telegram from 1939, and 15 letters from 1940. Most recurrently, Speier discusses her concern for Nobile’s health, her desire to receive more frequent and detailed updates on his life, her concern for the trajectory of their relationship as they spend increasingly long spans of time apart, and her frustration with the unpredictability of the post.
