Jacques Seligmann & Co., 3 East 51st Street, New York City. Dear Sir: The painting by Berhard Strigel which you delivered to us on June 20th of this year is indeed an antique painting. It was produced in Germany, about 1525, and there is an authentication by the Dr. Max I. Friedlaender, former director of the Deutsches Museum in Berlin, Germany. My father purchased the picture from the Galerie Georg Caspari, Briennerstrasse 52 in Munich, Germany. Hoping that the above information will satisfy the U.S. Customs, I am, dear Sir, Very sincerely yours, [[signature]]Klaus G. Perls.[[/signature]] Klaus G. Perls, PERLS GALLERIES.
