ILEANA SONNABEND
39 QUAI DES GRANDS AUGUSTINS    PARIS VI

—2—

As I am sure Leo has mentioned, we are most eager to cooperate with you in every way, but your actions must be coinciding more accurately with ours here and more swiftly than in the past. I would have liked to have you do all the European bookings, but time is an important factor and the confirmation of these other dates was a necessity. 

If you will now let me know your plans for the cities still in question I will confirm the arrangements with you. 

Best regards and good wishes for the new year. 

Incidentally, enclosed is a list of the works with dimensions, a draft of the Max Kosloff preface and a basic press release. You will be getting these formally in a few weeks. This is for your information only and under no circumstances is it to be shown to anyone else. Relationships with the Philip Morris people in Paris are not all they might be and this whole matter of pop art there will have to be handled with great delicacy and tact. 

Do please write by return mail. 

Cordially, 

Nina Kaiden
