Transcript

April 25, 1931 Mrs. Charles M. Russell, Trail’s End, 725 Michigan Blvd., Pasadena, Calif. Dear Mrs. Russell: Our Mr. Nelson wrote you sometime ago stating that we were out of many of your most saleable bronzes and asking that they be replaced but he had no re- ply. Isn’t there some way we can get the pieces we need. It will mean more business for both of us. Awaiting your reply and with kindest wishes I am, Very truly yours, [signed] Erwin S.
