January 26, 1955

Dear Mr. Emerson: 

Checking upon the documents sent to the Samuel H. Kress Foundation, I noticed that you had received no pamphlet on the Mercury statue, atelier of Jean Goujon, from the Chateau d'Anet. 

As I am anxious for you to have the documents on this exceptional statue, I am rushing over this provisional pamphlet. 

Should the Foundation be interested in it, may I remind you that the price is $20,000 (twenty thousand dollars).

Yours very sinerely, 

Germain Seligman
