16•XI•59 Dear Bill, The time has come when we might be permitted to examine, and to make some use of the photographs, films and slides, you took for the Smithsonian Bredin Expedition whether completely identified or not — all of them. I think Tom Bowman has already written you about the official seminar for December 18th. Now I have been asked to also speak on Dec. 3 to a group of retired Government scientists — The Fossils Club — made up of some of the most prominent men in the various disciplines ever employed by the Government. I am sure you will let me have all of the photographic materials without further delay, Sincerely, [[signature - Waldo L. Schmitt]] [[underline]]P.S.[[/underline]] Please fully insure the shipment!
