Dear Mrs. Parsons,

The museum of Modern Art is preparing for its archives a file of significant contemporary portraits in all media. With a view of keeping this up to date, we should be most grateful if you could find time to make us a list-by subject and media-of portrait drawings by Edward Melcarth that you may know about, which are not yet found in exhibition catalogues.

Thanking you in advance for the courtesy of your consideration, I am, 

Very sincerely yours, 

Amy Abraham
