2nd January 1954

My dear Mr. Seligman,
Thank you very much indeed for your letter of 28th December. It is really most kind of you to take so much trouble about racing the various objects which I asked, and I am most grateful to you for all your help. Now that I know that it is not possible to trace the tapestries any further, I will go ahead with my article and will let you know when it is likely to be published.

I am most interested that the Le Prince tapestry has found its way to the Metropolitan Museum.

With kind regards and my very best wishes for 1954,
Yours very sincerely
Robert Cecil
