Ernst, Manager Basle, Mai 10, 1946 Mr. Germain Seligman, 47, East 61st Street New York Dear Germain, Having safely returned from the United States in a Transatlantic flight of excellent smoothness I have taken up my work again at the bank in Basle. Before I left I received your farewell present, these two lovely ties which, I must say, were of marvellous taste and which caused me great pleasure. I thank you ever so much for this wonderful gift which will make me remember you frequently and particularly when ever I use them for a festival occasion. Furthermore I thank you for all you were doing for me during my stay in New York. I am so greatful to you and your firm for your custodianship of so many dear belongings of mine. I hope that it will not be too long before we meet again. I would feel very happy indeed if our next reunion would be in Basle. Please remember me to Edith Sachs and to our other mutual friends. To you God speed and a good trip to France. Hoping that your plans concerning a wedding trip to Switzerland will realize, I am, dear Germain, with kindest regards Yours sincerely Rudolf J.
