^[[What done last year]] [[preprinted]] ARTHUR S. VERNAY President HENRY A. GOODE Vice President [[underline]]Arthur S. Vernay[[/underline]] INCORPORATED No 19 E. 54th Street New York EARLY ENGLISH FURNITURE AND WORKS OF ART ARCHITECTURAL INTERIORS [[/preprinted]] November 8, 1933. 14-A Jacques Seligmann Galleries, 3 East 51st Street, New York City. Gentlemen: Owing to the discontinuance of the Gibson Committee this year, the burden of the American Red Cross is heavier than ever. Every assistance is vitally needed to fulfill the work they have before them, and we all know that the Red Cross reaches as far as it is possible into the deprived homes and hearts of those who desperately need their help. Consequently, it is with confidence and hope that the Red Cross makes this appeal to you for your kind help and understanding. The Annual Roll Call will be held from Armistice Day, November 11th, to Thanksgiving Day, November 30th, 1933. You will be interested to know that during the past year, through a plan initiated by the New York Chapter, over $7,000,000 worth of Government flour and cotton was distributed in the form of food, clothing and bedding to the poor and distressed of our city. Let us endeavor to enroll as great a membership as possible and to obtain an increase in the contributions which have been so generously given in the past. I heartily endorse this appeal, realizing the great work performed by the Red Cross, and I hope our profession will support it to the utmost. All checks should be made payable to the New York Chapter, American Red Cross, and sent to 315 Lexington Avenue. Sincerely yours, [[signature]] Arthur S. Vernay, Chairman, Arts and Antiques. ^[[1932 no contributions by us. 24/11/33 pd $10-.]]
