OAL:R May 11th, 1937 Dear Sir: We are pleased to confirm our agreement that we shall hold an exhibition of your work at our galleries for a period of three (3) weeks, beginning with January 3rd, 1938. It is understood that you will leave these works entirely at your own risk at our galleries and that we may in no way be held responsible for any loss or damage that may occur. They will not be insured by us either at our galleries or in transit or at any other location. Should you insure these, you will undertake to inform your insurance company that you have released us from all responsibility and that therefore no recourse can be had against this firm. All expenses in connection with this show will be borne by us, with the exception of advertising which you will take care of at your own expense and discretion. We shall take it upon ourselves to have a small folder catalogue published. As agreed, we shall receive a commission of thirty-five per cent (35%) on the Selling Price of any pictures sold or ordered during the course of the exhibition with the understanding that should you conclude any sales or receive any orders at any time up to June 30, 1938, we shall consider such sales a direct result of this exhibition and shall, therefore, be entitled to the above-stated commission, even though you may have been in touch with the client prior to the exhibition. ..............
