Short handwritten note on the back of a compliments slip written by the well-respected Austrian-Jewish sports journalist Willy Meisl and addressed to Danny (Blanchflower). He invites Blanchflower to visit him and also says that "I have written a few lines to your brother. I hope he will recover as quickly as possible - all the best wishes ...". Jackie Blanchflower was, of course, badly injured in the Munich Air Disaster and never did recover fully.

10 x 7cm. Rusty paper-clip mark. Good condition.
