EINSTEIN, Albert (1879-1955). Autograph letter signed ('Papa') to his elder son, Hans Albert, n.p., 29 November 1937, expressing pleasure at news (evidently connected with Hans Albert's search for a job in the USA), 'I can quite understand that it is very exhausting'; he should write to Professor Moody; he has heard that Cahn can do what he wants at 'Ann arbre', and adding the advice 'You must think that they will after all prefer to take you on where there is nothing, whereas the functioning institutes already have their people. Don't let yourself be deceived by people's obliging exteriors', half page, 4to.
