Dear Mr. Furthman:
Replying to your letter of March 12th, we have requests for items such as your Picasso water color, "Contemplation" and Picasso drawing of "The Three Graces", and would be very pleased to handle them for your account on consignment at the following figures net to you. In addition, I am listing other items which we would be willing to take consignment at their respective net prices to you, realizing, of course, as I told you in my previous letter that the last few years, and I might even say the last few months, have enormously altered the current values of paintings and works of art. However, I believe you will find these prices commensurate with the times:
Consignment Net to you
PICASSO water color "Contemplation"............. $1,000.00
PICASSO drawing "The Three Graces".......... 200.00
PICASSO oil "Classical Head"............ 1,500.00
HOUAULT water color "Judges".................... 100.00
HOUAULT oil "Women"..................... 250.00
MATISSE oil "Flower Carnival at Nice"... 3,00.00 
Will you be kind enough to let me know your opinion and decision on this matter, and with kind regards,
I remain-
Yours very sincerely,
(Robert M. Levy)
