Gentlemen: 

My business is the making of paintings. I am a painter. All works made by me are sold through the Leo Castelli Gallery. Upon the sale of my work through that Gallery, the gallery remits to me my share of the profits. I myself do not make any sales outside the gallery.

The Castelli Gallery is duly registered with you, and upon sale of my works, collects City Sales Tax where it is applicable, and this is properly forwarded to you.

Yours sincerely,

Robert Rauschenberg

I enclose The Application of Waiver which you sent back, requesting the above information
