Dear Sir,

In reply to your letter of the 11th. August, we will send on Friday next at 5.15 and collect from you the pictures H.R.H. the Crown Princess of Roumania [4221] and Lady Bathurst [4535], as you request. They will be insured while in our possession, each for £600, and we will keep them the shortest time possible.

As regards your interesting suggestion that we should publish the Portraits of the Queen of the Belgians and the Duchess of York, I am afraid that as a commercial venture, they would not appeal to us greatly. They lie rather outside the scope of our usual business and in any case, in our experience there is no very extensive sale for reproductions of portraits of the Royal Family. From an artistic point of view

See P.S.
