By appointment to his majesty the King of Egypt

June 10th, 1950
Mr. Germain Seligmann
5 East 57th Street
New York City 22, New York

Dear Mr. Seligmann;

As you know, I am chairman of the Art and Antique Dealers Division of the U.J.A., and as such, I wish to call your attention to the urgency for funds to carry on this all important work.

You were kind enough to give us a donation in '48 and '49, and we have had nothing from you since. I beg you personally, to give this matter serious consideration and do whatever you can. I know it's not necessary to explain to you how vital each dollar is at present.

With kindest regards and best wishes,
Yours very truly,
Hammer Galleries
