Gentlemen: 

We beg to enclose herein our check on The Fifth Avenue Bank of New York in the sum of fifteen dollars ($15.00) being in payment of 1% New York City Sales Tax on No. 77 of the Chrysler Sale, painting by Braque "Nature Morte" which we purchased directly for the account of a client for $1,500.00 on March 22nd, 1945, and for which we erroneously did- not pay tax at the time of delivery. 

Trusting that our oversight will not inconvenience you, and asking you to kindly send us a receipted invoice covering this remittance, 

Yours very truly, 

JACQUES SELIGMANN & CO., Inc.
