According Paul Englisch, who purchased a copy of our book in 1930, "[Schwabach] liess [Cleander] durch Vermittlung von Kurt Wolff, dem bekannten Münchener Verleger bei C.W. Poeschel in Leipzig 1923 (sic!) drucken... Das Exemplar stammt aus dem Besitz von Kurt Wolff, der seine Erotiksammlung letzthin abgestossen hat" (letter quoted in Widlok, op. cit., p. 210).
