In the original paper, it was assumed that a selfmap of X=P∨C, the wedge of a real projective space P and a circle C, is homotopic to a map that takes P to itself. An example is presented of a selfmap of X that fails to have this property. However, all the results of the paper are correct for maps of the pair (X,P).
