London: 3 Duke Street, Adelphi. New York: 20 East 16th Street. London June 2d, 1902. Dear Mr. Freer: I am just returned from the Continent, where I have spent very big money for a very small showing of rare prints. Prices are advancing in an unmerciful manner; - and Whistler's works more than any others. I now send you, on approval, the following: Whistler, The copperplate of the "Little Mast" 25 guineas. Whistler, The Traghetto, £26.5.0 or 25 guineas. Whistler, The Piazetta. £26.5.0 or 25 guineas. These are high prices, but that's not my fault; and I was asked 28 guineas for a single proof from one of these plates this very day. Tomorrow, it I could know the hour - most convenient to yourself - when I could see you at the Carlton, I could then show you four pastels by Whistler, - Said to be very fine. I am, dear Mr Freer, Very Sincerly yours Frederick Keppel Charles L. Freer Esq. [[obscured]] ompany, Dr. London, Eng. gs 1206.60 [[checkmark]] DOLLARS.
