GS:SM May 19th, 1934. My dear Mr. Erickson: May I take the liberty of inquiring whether you would be interested in parting with any of your paintings as a client of mine has requested me to inquire about the Holbein which you own. Even though you might not be willing to take a definite decision at the present time, I would like you to allow me to see again this particular painting and, have a conversation with you. I hope you will not mind my writing you in so straight-forward a way though I haly had the pleasure of meeting you once quite a number of years ago. Looking forward to hearing from you, believe me to be, Yours sincerely, JACQUES SELIGMANN & CO., INC. (Germain Séligmann) A. W. Erickson, Esq., 110 East 35th Street, New York City.
