[[/preprinted]] New York, New York September 19, 1939 Jacques Seligmann and Company 3 East 51 Street New York, New York Gentlemen: I have just arrived from England with a really fine, attractive, and saleable collection of English LANDSCAPES and PORTRAITS. Unfortunately, because of the European situation, my stay may not be as long as usual, and in consequence of this I must liquidate my stock as quickly as possible. This is an excellent opportunity for you to acquire some fine examples at a really interesting price. Owing to conditions of transport from England, it will be some time before any more paintings will be available from there. I have two hundred pictures to show you, each perfectly framed and ready for you to exhibit. I look forward to a visit from you very soon. Very truly yours, ^[[John Nicholson]] JN:JB John Nicholson Enc.
