I have strayed to Web pages of Jozef Pilsudski Institute

In the listing of its archives (not in English yet):

http://dione.ids.pl/~ijp/pol/aog2.html

under LANGENFELD Witold Karol (ur. 1896), and T. 9 [vol. 9]
of the materials presented to the Institute by Ludwik E. Michael
there are some manuals, which include (translating the titles):
_Cryptography_, _Wilfrid Cypher_, _Beginnings of cryptography_,
_Memory cypher_ - all in typescript, without author or date.

_Wilfrid cypher_ is obviously what alarmed me. Is a cypher
by that name known? Or was there a tradition of a cypher
invented by Wojnicz in Poland and knowned by his conspiracy
pseudonym?

I guess we just have to have a look at it and see what we see - is anyone here planning to be in New York (specifically Second Avenue) any time soon?
