Baermann Nachlass Auction Catalogue, Henrici 1922
Source D-Heu
In 1922, the Berlin auction house held a sale containing items from the estate of Heinrich and Carl Baermann, together with other collections, including 'the archive of an important music shop'. Unfortunately, rather than grouping each collection according to provenance, the lots were organised by creator, in groups according to their field (the nobility, military and politicians; music and theatre; fine arts; literature and science). There is therefore no way of ascertaining which items originated from the Baermann estate. Listings that they were written or inscribed by, or addressed or dedicated to one of the Baermanns, in particular letters and scores, have been added to relevant the Virtual Archive section, some with links to their current location. However most of the items listed are untraced. Perhaps most regrettable is lot 160:
