The illustrated dreams are magnificent. The artist apparently understands dreams much better than Bleuler, Havelock Ellis, et al. Your observations are quite right. The nicest page seems to be the one by the Frenchman Bonne,1 and the most important one is your conclusion appended to it. But now a question. Who is the artist? Is he definitely a Hungarian and not a German? In the latter case the evidence seems to be missing.2
Your experience with Herr Kohn is also singularly beautiful. But are you certain that it isn't a cryptomnesia? Didn't you perhaps recognize the man from family resemblance? Is he supposed to carry around the visual picture of his own name with him while he rides the tram? Do you admit that this success also can't be explained by means of thought transference?
