March 8, 1978

Dear Mr. Fredericksen,

When I told Mr. Seligman of your request for the enclosed brochure on the Toulouse-Lautrec which you saw here, he intended writing to you himself but unfortunately he has not yet been able to come to the gallery, I am acting on his behalf.

I do not recall having quoted the price, which is $400,000.  (four hundred thousand dollars).

Should you not wish to consider the acquisition of the Toulouse-Lautrec may we ask that the brochure be returned to us for our own records.  

Both Mr. Seligman and I hope that you enjoyed your trip to Europe and that you saw many interesting works of art.

Sincerely,

Theresa D. Parker
