THE CLEVELAND MUSEUM OF ART 11150 EAST BOULEVARD AT UNIVERSITY CIRCLE CLEVELAND, OHIO 44106 CABLE ADDRESS: MUSART CLEVELAND SHERMAN E. LEE, DIRECTOR TELEPHONE, GARFIELD 1-7340 April 13, 1964 Mr. Robert Schoelkopf Robert Schoelkopf Gallery 825 Madison Avenue New York, New York 10021 Dear Mr. Schoelkopf: I am sorry to have been so slow pushing a decision on the Cornell box that you had to remind me of it. The situation is this: I am all for it and have urged it repeatedly. Sherman Lee has some hesitation about it, thinking, I believe, that we might find an even better one. I have written to a benefactor of the Museum in this area just recently and sent him a photograph of the box. If he is interested we can conclude the deal at once. If not, I will have to approach Sherman Lee again for a final answer. It is my sincere hope that by hook or crook we will keep this box, which I think is extremely beautiful. Sincerely yours, Ed Henning Edward B Henning Curator of Contemporary Art ebh:aw
