Dear Mr. Seligmann:
   Thank you very much for you letter and the check.
   Regarding the Metsus, I am afraid that there is none in this country for sale as far as I know.  He is a very rare master and the few certain ones are in the Art Institute in Chicago and the Metropolitan Museum.  I don't know of any in privaate collections.
Sincerely yours,
W.R. Valentine
