COPY  Mrs. Madeline Tourtelot to G.S. July 18th., 1948

(Gallery Studio
161 East Ontario Street
Chicago 11, Illinois)

Dear Mr. Seligman:

Thank you kindly for the letter and catalog descriptions of June 15th., and please pardon the late delay in answer. I had no idea it would be such an undertaking to move out of the Gallery for two months, and then I was out of town for a while.

I am anxious to prepare the catalog to be printed for the October show as soon as possible. I intend using some photographs, and I would greatly appreciate glosses of the following if you have them:

"Ballet Conductor"  by Degas
"Young God" Picasso  No
"Young Boy" La Fresnaye
"Study for 'The Parade" Seurat

Hoping that this letter reaches you before you depart for Europe, I am,

Very sincerely yours,

(Signed Madeline Tourtelot)

Dear Miss T. -
I have first heard from Mr. G.S. to whom I forwarded your letter of July 18th - in answer there to he wishes me to send you - enclosed herein - photos of Degas - "La Fresnaye" "Seurat"-...

We have no photograph of the Picasso at present - 

Trusting these will reach you in ample time for your catalog-

Please thank Mr. Liechti for his letter of July 20th - without number -
