Additional comment
Netzhammer 1914: marca teatrală din Tomis (?) [...] Eşti aproape să crezi că această piesă de plumb este o tessera pentru teatru. ln orice caz, pe o astfel de marcă şi-ar găsi justificarea cea mai explicabilă reprezentarea simbolică a tragediei şi comediei. Poate că sunt mai aproape de adevăr aceia, cari susţin că şi aci avem a face cu o măsură de greutate.
