Beethoven asks the publisher Haslinger to have the dedication copy of the Symphony op. 125 bound for the King of Prussia. He wants to pay the bookbinder's costs himself. In a postscript he instructs that an empty sheet of "new, good writing paper" is to be bound at the beginning "on which the title will come".
