American Artist 330 WEST 42nd STREET, NEW YORK March 21, 1945 Mr. Robert Carlen 323 South Sixteenth Street Philadelphia 2, Pennsylvania Dear Mr. Carlen: Under separate cover we are sending you a copy of the April issue of American Artist. As you will note, we did not use Mr. Pippin’s own explanation of his painting as we found that our original idea did not work out in a practical way and was not suitable for the layout finally developed. We hope, however, that both you and Mr. Pippin will be pleased with our presentation; and we want to thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Cordially, Watson Ernest W. Watson Editor EWW:AG
