Stern may ask to look at or even ask to have on consignment for a very short period the Spanish Primitive "Annunciation" price quoted $14,000. between July 1st and July 15. If so it would be all right, [[crossed out]]and[[/crossed out]] to either show it to him or/and his client, or give it to him on consignment, but again for a very short period of two or three days. I explained to him that the painting would go to the warehouse probably right after July 15., and thus no longer available. He has been given all documents pertaining to it, and I also told him I would be willing to listen to a reasonable offer.
