Berlin 9.I.1865. Probably to his publisher Otto Janke in Berlin. Shows itself very disappointed by the postponement of the promised new edition of Glassbrenner's successful works "Die verrückte Welt" and "Der neue Reineke Fuchs". "... Six weeks ago, Mr. Luttier came to me on your behalf. The result was that the remaining copies would be sold by now; the circulation would take place. I have now told this at the Lutter table [i.e. the regular table in the restaurant "Lutter & Wegner" at the Gendarmenmarkt] and here and there, and also in writing, and it is, as you know, printed several times in newspapers. Now I stand there as a liar or a boaster! Also, your announcement of the effect was because of poems. Verk. World. Reineke - so much desired. I was so happy that I was helping my friends. For a long time it was so quiet of me... I endured it with the utmost calmness. Now the 4th ed. of the poems struck in such a way, Reineke Fuchs, the Verk. World came to an end; at the same time Keil wrote to me and demanded my picture and my biography for the 'garden faith' and so on! ... R. Fuchs with Mr G. Hempel is right and I thank you in advance for that. I'd rather have a morning hour with a sweater of wine somewhere, but I would also come in the evening ... Thun what you want and can do for me now; it's the best time ... Today is Döring's birthday; until 3 o'clock we will be with him at Lutter. Maybe you can get there; it would be nice!" - Theodor Döring, the famous character comedian of the Königl. Acting, also enjoyed great popularity in the Berlin literature scene and participated in the legendary meetings at Lutter & Wegner. - The "Neue Reineke Fuchs" was last published by Janke in 1862. A further greatly extended edition came out in 1866 at Keil in Leipzig. - Included a steel engraving portrait of Glassbrenner (half-figure, after a photograph).
