Museum of Art Carnegie Institute 4400 Forbes Avenue Pittsburgh 13 Pennsylvania (412) 621-7300 May 19, 1966 Mr. Robert Carlen 323 South Sixteenth Street Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19102 Dear Bob: I am enclosing a kodachrome which was sent to me by the Terry DeLapp Gallery in Los Angeles. It is presumed to be a Pippin of which there is no record. I note it is signed by him in the lower right-hand corner. Have you ever seen it before? Any information you might be able to provide would be most gratefully received. Would you be kind enough to return the kodachrome so I can return it to the owner. With warmest greetings to Alice and yourself, Cordially, [[Geon?]] Associate Director LAA :l Enclosure P.S. Incidentally, Bob, Seldon Rodman, in his book, records a letter by Pippin in which he "explains" his [[underline]] Holy Mountain [[underline]] painting. Would you, by any chance, know where this letter originated and who might be the owner of it today? Gustave von Groschwitz director Leon Anthony Arkus associate director
