Seattle, Washington 98105 Dear Jake: Many months, and even years have passed since I have talked with you but nevertheless, I think of you and mention your name often. i wish to congratulate you on the book that was recently published about you and your paintings, and on the exciting exhibit that is touring the Country. I recently saw in a book by artist ___ Soyer, a lovely painting that the artist did of you and Gwen. It was a pleasant surprise. Before leaving for a short vacation in Egypt, I wanted to be in contact with you and to send you the warmest wishes for continued healthy, prosperous and beautiful years. Sincerely, Peg P.S. Please give Gwen my warmest regards and do get in touch when you are in the NYC area.
