I am sending you a fairly complete list (under separate cover) of the sculptures and their sizes. The list of lenders, I will send directly to Eisenmann with the text. When I have a complete set of photos which should be by the end of this week, I will send them as well. If there are any problems or questions, you can always call Jock Truman at the Betty Parsons Gallery. He is very helpful.

Once I have an estimate on the cost of the catalog and where we are going to get the money to pay for it, I will write you. At that point you can communicate directly with Mr. Eisenmann at Yale on details.

As for the color plate used on the invitation there are two sets of color separations. One set is at Art News. I can ask that it be sent directly to you. There is another set in Paris which I can send you when I get back. The sent in New York are duplicates, so it is perhaps better that I send you the original plates from Paris. We will use the color plate in the catalog.

What a marvelous thing this is for me! I do intent to do a beautiful show for you. People haere are amazed that the museum has come up with a black women's show and a functioning black acquisitions committee to boot! it seems you are leading the way.

I did enjoy meeting you although I hated to pose more problems for you wen you seem so harrassed. Hopeful we will have time and the energy to become friends in the process of doing the show.
