Contains information about Aleksander Kulisiewicz's case against Wlodzimierz Wnuk. In 1974 Wnuk wrote a critical review of Kulisiewicz's camp song anthology, then only in draft form, stating that the songs were overly vulgar and explicit. Wnuk also asserted that the insulting nature of the songs and anthology text would compromise the progress of relations between Poland and Germany.

In addition to correspondence, Kulisiewicz prepared questionnaires for the composers relating specifically to the song texts thought to be objectionable by Wnuk.
