17. "A lot of work I perform from my residence in Switzerland and special thanks to the many people
who have made this possible through digitisation. Moreover, I notice that this service is
constantly improving, quantitatively and qualitatively."
“… and most of all I would like to thank the staff of the Amsterdam Stadsarchief , without
whose digitization services it would have been impossible to complete this project.”
