Dear Mr. Speelman:

Upon my return to town from a couple of weeks spent in the sunshine of the Caribbean Islands, I found your good note of March 8.

The check you were kind enough to forward, has already been acknowledged by my firm, and as per your request, I take pleasure in enclosing herein a photograph of the drawing by G. Domenico Tiepolo "Leopards At The Zoo", signed on the lower left.

On the back you will find its dimensions. According to information I have been able to gather, this drawing would not belong to any particular series carried out by the artist.

You will recall that the price I quoted you for it is $2,800 (two thousand eight hundred dollars).

When you will find this photograph is no longer of use to you, you will oblige me returning it. 

With kind regards,
          
                 Sincerely yours,
                 Germain Seligman
