Feigert’s First Carnival-Reunion in the Kovikt Hall.’ Feigert was noted to be arranging four reunions on 20th, 27th January and on 10th and 17th February. The events, remarked the advertisement, would include all the excellent features of his reunions and would certainly be very successful. The advertisement also announced that each Sunday afternoon at 5pm during the carnival season, dance exercised would be given Feigert’s rooms. The text was undersigned by ‘Friedrich Feigert, Townsmann and Dance teacher, Marienplatz [Marianské náměstí] nr.100-1.’
