Miss Alice F. Roullier 410 N. Michigan Ave Chicago.

Dear Miss Roullier - I just had news today that the Braque collection has finally arrived. I could not write you sooner regarding the possibility of sending it on to Chicago as requested in your letter of Sept. 14th. The exhibition will be held here November 7 through December. January would be satisfactory as far as I am concerned. I must however ask that a share of the importation expenses (duty, brokerage and insurance be shared by the Arts Club with me.) The expense to me is about $300 unclear the pictures. I have to pay for the return to France which will be another expense of about $125--I believe the arts club should re-imburse me $150 minimum. Will you let me know? This of course is outside of shipment to Chicago. There are 20 paintings very truly Valentine Dudensing
