I was in a hurry yesterday so you should get the goods still quiker but I failed to make Train Connections, so my Letter from yesterday also the Box will leave to night Express + you will have same about 3 day's after this Letter as [[Expresspackage?]] goes a little slower than Letters, regarding the different Articles I will discribe them herin, do you need not Keep all, as Prof. Pepper wrote that if not like you return them free of duty and [[Expresspackage?]] might [[away?]] to me. The Prices I made you are Museum on Collectors' Prices that means [[75?]]% less than I retail those goods, also very low and gives this low Prices a Profit of 25% to me. All those goods you order are in the Photo (send) marked and are all choice rare prices. -
