ALBERT SHAW. EDITOR

March 21, 1908

Dear Mr Laszlo:

It seems quite certain now that the Knoedlers will make the desired arrangement.[1] It will be easy to settle the matter finally when you arrive[2]

For two days I have been extremely busy going to press, and this matter has been attended to for me by my friend Mr. Ernest Knaufft,[3] who writes for our magazine on art questions and is always helpful. If this note should miss you I will report the matter to you at the Waldorf when you arrive.

Sincerely yours,

Albert Shaw.

Mr. P.A. Laszlo
