Dear Mr. Alinari; 

Thank you for your letter of October 5th. I would liketto order one photograph of the [[underlined]]Virgin and Child[[/underlined]] by Orcagna in the Camposanto di Pisa and inclosed is $1.00 (one dollar) to cover the cost. Please send the photograph as soon as possible by airmail, [[underlined]] well protected by a heavy cardboard[[/underlined]].

As regards the Balducci reliefs, inclosed is a photostat, taken from an article in "L'Arte" and bearing the indication Or San Michele, Firenze, of the works in question. If photographs of these three rel[[strikethrough]]ee[[/strikethrough]]iefs are available, we would very much appreciate it if you would send them with the Camposanto photograph and we will gladly remit the amount of their cost to you immediately. 

In reference to the [[underlined]]Tomb of Folchino Schizzi[[/underlined]], by Bonino da Campione in Cremona, since you have no photographs of the tomb, could you possibly tell us where we might obtain one? We would be grateful for any information. 

Thank you very much for your attention to this matter.

Yours very sincerely, 
JACQUES SELIGMANN & CO., INC.
