1980-1989
Physical Description: 40.45 Linear Feet(97 boxes)
Scope and Content Note
During the 1980s, private art collectors are the core of the clientele. Most of Hans Max Cramer's correspondents are private
art collectors in Europe and United States, including many with whom a business relationship had already been established
in the 1960s and 1970s. His correspondence with other art dealers seems decreased. Instead, Cramer corresponds more frequently
with international auction houses such as Sotheby's, Christie's or the Kunsthaus Lempertz in Cologne, Germany.
Correspondence continues with the Dutch art collectors Th. Bakker, Chris van Eeghen, E. ten Cate; K. W. D. Gratama, Hans
Hagemann, and J. L. W. Sillevis Smitt. The 1988 correspondence with the Dutch industrialist and art collector Hans Hagemann
includes a substantial exchange with John Walsh at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu, California. The Hagemann correspondence
is filed under Hagemann as well as under Malibu.
Among the German art collectors are Diethelm Doll in Bad Godesberg, the enterpreneur Rudolf August Oetker, Herbert Schaefer,
the merchant and publisher in Bremen Carl Schünemann Jr., Hans-Günther Soll in Düsseldorf-Gerresheim, and Albert Weidenbusch
in Solingen.
Correspondence also continues with the Swiss art collector Baron Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza in Castagnola, Switzerland;
and with the Spanish art collector Manuel de Villegas y Urzáiz in Bad Godesberg, Germany and in Madrid, Spain.
Among the art collectors in the United States Cramer continues to correspond with Edward William Carter in Los Angeles (occasionally
filed under Los Angeles) and John Lowenthal in New York. New is his correspondence with the Barbara Piasecka-Johnson Collection
in Princeton, New Jersey (filed under Johnson); Frits Markus in New York; Baronne Gabriella Bentinck in Paris, France; and
the architect and art collector Tino Walz in Munich.
During the 1980s Cramer also continues to correspond with and sell artworks to several museums in Europe and United States
with whom he already established a business relationship during the 1960s and the 1970s; but the most frequent correspondence
is with J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu, California; Norton Simon Museum of Art in Pasadena, California; Metropolitan Museum
of Art in New York; Toledo Museum of Art in Toledo, Ohio; and Staatsgalerie Stuttgart in Stuttgart, Germany. New is the correspondence
with the Art Gallery of Windsor in Windsor, Ontario, Canada (filed under Windsor).
Among the art dealers the correspondence continues especially with S. Nystad in The Hague. New is the correspondence with
the Kunsthaus Bühler in Stuttgart (filed under Kurt and Gabriele Zimmermann); and Maria-Christina zu Sayn-Wittgenstein at
Sayn-Wittgenstein Fine Art Inc. in New York.
Correspondence also continues with Ben and Margot Snyder at the Cranbrook School in Bloomfield, Michigan; and with the Rembrandt
scholar Werner Sumowski. New is the correspondence with the art historian and director of Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe
Horst Vey; and with Cramer's lawyer Egon Trockel in Essen.
Besides letters, the 1980s correspondence increasingly includes short handwritten notes stating the name of the client who
called or visited the gallery, usually with date and time, and a short summary about the nature of the inquiry.
The correspondence from 1983, 1984, 1985 and 1986 includes letters sent and notes concerning organizing the exhibition
Holland in Engadin, which was curated by Hans M. Cramer and John Hoogsteder and held at the museum Chesa Planta [Plantahaus] in Zuoz, Switzerland.
The letters are filed in folders labelled Zuoz exhibition.

Series I.G.
1990-1998
Physical Description: 29.61 Linear Feet(71 boxes)
Scope and Content Note
During the 1990s, private art collectors continue to be the core of the clientele, including numerous new clients from Europe
and the United States. Especially frequent and extensive is the correspondence with the Dutch art collectors Theo Bakker,
Jacobus Hendrikus Bakker, Chris van Eeghen, K. W. D. Gratama, and Hans Hagemann; the German art collectors Diethelm Doll,
Rudolf August Oetker, and Albert Weidenbush; the Swiss art collector Baron H. H. Thyssen-Bornemisza; and the art collectors
in Spain Herbert Schaefer and Manuel de Villegas y Urzáiz. Among the art collectors from United States the most frequent and
extensive is the correspondence with Alfred Bader in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Among the numerous new clients are the art collectors Peter and Hilde Alexander in Vienna and Willem Arntz in Wassenaar in
the Netherlands. There is also a frequent exchange with the legal firm Russel Advocaten in The Hague. In 1998 Hans Max Cramer
writes to the Chairman of Microsoft Corporation, William H. Gates. The letters concern the sale of a private residence and
art collection in Switzerland.
Cramer also maintains contacts with other art dealers, especially with the Old Master dealer John Hoogsteder (Galerie Hoogsteder)
in The Hague and the art gallery Kunsthaus Bühler in Stuttgart (filed under Kurt and Gabriele Zimmermann). Generally, in comparison
with the previous decades, his business contacts with other art dealers seem decreased. Instead, Cramer corresponds with auction
houses, predominantly with the Kunsthaus Lempertz in Cologne, Germany.
Several American art museums continue to be clients of the Oude Kunst gallery; among others the J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu,
California (correspondence with John Walsh); the Minneapolis Institute of Arts; the National Gallery of Art in Washington
DC.; and the Norton Simon Museum of Art in Pasadena, California. In Europe, the most frequent correspondence is with Horst
Vey, art historian and director of Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe.
Besides letters, the 1990s correspondence also includes a large number of short handwritten notes stating the name of the
client who called or visited the gallery, usually with date and time, and a short summary about the nature of the inquiry.
