Dear Mr. Seligmann:

When I received the catalogue of your recent Sculpture Exhibition, I sent it on to a very dear friend of ours, Yvonne Backus in Eastham, Mass., who in my humble opinion is a very gifted and amusing sculptress. I told her that she could not find any better place to exhibit in New York than in your gallery if you could come to terms. I suggested that she should send you some photographs and literature on her work and to see you when she comes next to New York. Anything you can do for her would be highly appreciated as she is very close to Mrs. Schaeffer and myself, and we sincerely believe in her gifts as a sculptress. 

It is a pity that we live in the same town and see so little of each other. I am just going away for about three to four weeks, but when I am back I will try to make a date to see you and charming Mrs. Seligmann again.  

With kindest regards to both of you, 

I am,

Sincerely yours,
