Description
Full text in translation:
'Dear Jacques,
The small Picasso is sold, I will have the money Saturday and I will be able to send you 10.000 Francs.
[illegible word] Jacques, I submit this to you: a lady offered me her services and money and we could have an artist contract; I can finally say that I think she can be trusted enough so that I can buy some sculptures from you on regular basis. It's my biggest wish, I hope it will happen.
Your dear friend Jeanne'.
Letterhead on the top says: 'Bibliotheque etrangere. Tableaux et editions des gravures modernes. Directrice Jeanne Bucher'.
