Please send me details relative to this matter at once, as we need such a magazine as MIX in our city. Very truly, WALLACE STEWART Havana, Cuba General Delivery September 8, 1939 Editor: While visiting the U.S.A in August I had the chance to purchase a copy of your MIX MAGAZINE in Tampa, Florida, and if you, at present, do not have any agent to CUBA, I would like full details of your offer to me. I have been a resident of Havana for fifteen years, and to date we haven't an all-pictorial Negro magazine on sale as I know of. Kindly let me hear from you on this matter, and if you accept me as an agent, you may send me 25 copies of your October issue. Thanking you very kindly, LAWRENCE KINGSBAY NOTE-Due to our limited space this month, we are forced to hold many letters of "comments" from our readers. We wish to extend our utmost appreciation to the many whom we have received such encouraging letters, and assure you that in our November edition, space will be specially alloted for LETTERS OF COMMENTS ONLY. -THE EDITOR NATIONAL ADVERTISERS (This Month) Ambrose Wine Co.
