Dear Mr. Buechner,

We were indeed pleased this morning to receive your order No.00588 for the "Frankish glass bottle.....$400.00" and are delighted that this rare flask will be in your collection.

Because of its fragility will you please let us know how you wish it shipped?  Or would someone from your museum be in New York, as it would seem to me much safer to have it taken to Corning by hand.

Meanwhile we are enclosing our invoice in triplicate as you requested.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Yours very sincerely
Mrs. T.D. Parker

Mr. Thomas S. Buechner,
