Transcript

Pasadena, California June 16, 1932. Mr. S. G. Schaudies 1219 Fourth Avenue North, Great Falls, Montana. Dear Mr. Schaudies: Your night letter of June 14th, reached me after all the pictures had been taken out of their frames, put into cases and placed in the bank vault for the sum- mer so I cannot get one out now. I considered send- ing one but times are so uncertain I thought possibly you wouldn’t need it this year. It’s just fine Dr. Cole has sent you “Last Chance Gulch” to exhibit and if I get to Montana in time to see your book make-up, I shall be glad to be of any service. I expect to be in Great Falls soon after the fourth of July which may be too late for the book- let. If you want to use description of some of the bronze, I know Miss Trigg know exactly what they are. She can and will be glad to tell you anything you want to know about them. I haven’t plates of the bronze and I am sorry because they would add to your catalog. Looking forward to seeing you soon, I am Sincerely yours,
