FROM GRANT WOOD - 1142 EAST COURT STREET - IOWA CITY - IOWA

January 23, 1941

Dear John, 
A note from Craven tells me that you signed up Tuesday with the Associated American Artists.
Congratulations! -- both to you and to Reeves and Maurie. You deserve to have dealers like them -- men whose honesty and loyalty you can trust. And they, in turn, deserve to have artists of you calibre.
I feel that you have done exactly the right thing and that this will prove the beginning of a long, friendly, and mutually profitable relationship.
Best in the world to you and Kathleen.
Sincerely,
Grant
