Dear Mansfield:

I am sending you the Japanese prints to-day by American Express and hope they will reach you safely. If you do not wish to exhibit all, select such as you may prefer. The lot are as follows:

Outamaro.

"Girl with Umbrella". ------------------------------ Single Print.
"Girl Dancing". ------------------------------------ Single Print.
"Wedding Procession". ------------------------------ Triptych.
"Seven Goddesses" with Fujiyama in the distance, --- Triptych

Toyokuni 
"Wedding” One male figure seated. ------------------ Triptych.
Interior Scene, one male figure standing, ---------- Triptych

Yeishi.
"Girls with Boat". --------------------------------- Triptych
"Seven Girls at Edge of Stream", ------------------- Two pieces.

Kionaga. 
"Garden Scene".	------------------------------------ Two pieces.

What are your plans for exhibiting and protecting the prints? Are they to be hung in frames or exhibited in cases under glass? Let me suggest that in either case the prints be mounted similar to the Outamaro "Wedding Procession", that is, so that a picture may be continuous. By this I mean without division between edges of prints. I intended to have remounted all of mine before sending them to you, but pressure of other matters has prevented. Unless you have made other arrangements, please let Jordan remount mine,
