Dear Elinor,

Will you allow the bearer, Miss Simeone, to have the collage of which I spoke to you over the phone about if a sale has not been consummated in the meantime?

Thank you for your consideration about the film business. I do not feel dictatorial about what is in other peoples' possession but I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

A few pieces in the Whitney Annual may enforce a breathing spell to survey activity in my medium proper - until then I am not committing mysel f [[myself]] very much with the exception of a couple of pieces in Cal where they took upon themselves.

Hope I may see you before Christmas.

Best,

Joseph
