[[preprinted]] Herbert N. Bier PAINTINGS WORKS OF ART 2, STRATHEARN PLACE, HYDE PARK SQUARE, LONDON, W.2 TELEPHONE: PADDINGTON 9522 CABLES: BIERART, LONDON [[/preprinted]] 14th January 1964. Mr. Germain Seligman, 5 East 57th Street, New York 22, N.Y., U.S.A. Dear Germain, I thank you for your letter of the 10th January and also for your cheque for £225 for the Couture pastel which I hope has reached you by now. I am afraid there is no particular pedigree I can give you as I bought the drawing in the London trade. I understand from Messrs. Chenue that the consignment went charges forward, which was a mistake and I have credited you with £2.17.6. for packing, insurance and postage. I also talked to Chenue's about the documents and they assured me that they sent Bemo Shipping Co. all the relevant papers at the same time. I have today mailed you express the photograph of the painting by Beaubrun which I think is extremely good. I hope you will be able to telephone me latest on Sunday night since we have more or less decided on our Swiss trip. I shall be away about a fortnight. With best regards, Yours sincerely, [[signed]] Herbert [[/signed]]
