Mr. Jacques Seligmann 705 Fifth Avenue New York City My dear Mr. Seligmann: May we bring to your attention the publication American Art Sales, a bulletin of current prices, published in seven numbers, December to June inclusive and reporting all important auction sales of the fine arts held in the United States. The object of this bulletin is to give not only sales records but also accurate information about the works of art and about the artists as well. Items are listed in a form most convenient for quick reference. American Art Sales presents a service of particular value to the art dealer in that it constitutes a correct check upon current values in the open market. It is a combined record of data available to the individual only through the expense and inconvenience of obtaining numerous priced catalogs. At the Metropolitan Museum it is held so highly that subscriptions are taken in the library and in seven other departments. A copy for your inspection comes to you by separate mail. We trust you will consider the advantage of adding this publication to your reference library. Cordially yours, [[signature]] Richard F. Bach [[/signature]]
