Dear Mr. Bjerke-Peterson:

You have I think already received a catalog of our exhibition of Fantastic-Surrealist art in recognition of your kindness in sending the Museum photographs.

I have just received a letter from Freddie asking also for a catalog, which I am sending to you. Unfortunately, we cannot send more than two catalogs since we are permitted to send them only to lenders of original works to the exhibition, so that I could not send five or six more copies to the Scandinavian painters.

I hope you will forgive us if we must limit the presentation copies to two.

With kindest regards and thanks, I am

Very sincerely yours,

Vilh. Bjerke-Peterson, Esq.
