Transcript

January 26th, 1936. Mr. C. A. Guernsey, 1726 Welton St., Denver, Colorado. Dear Mr. Guernsey: Under separate cover, I am sending the book “Good Medicine” which I promised you and I hope you will have as much fun out of it as you did in visiting with Charlie in Den- ver. I am looking forward to your new book. Also in the package with the book, are some photographs that you wished to show some friend. The description and prices are with them. When he has finished looking at them, if you will please return them to me as my photographs do get away in an amazing manner. Thank you for your interest in showing the pictures and I hope it will bring some good results. My very kindest regards. Sincerely,
