Dear Sir,

Referring to the conversation I had with you on the telephone when you told me you had made the reproduction after M. de Laszlo’s picture of King Edward about 1908 [7705]. Will you kindly send a copy of it for reproduction purposes, for the frontispiece of a book, to:

Herr Doctor Sigismund Muntz.,[1]

Reisner Strasse, 23,

VIENNA, III.

Believe me, | Yours faithfully,

Editorial Note:

Paul Ferdinand Anton Laib (1869-1958) [5994], German-born fine art photographer. Laib worked as de László’s photographer from about 1911 until the artist’s death in 1937.
