An old copy on wood - no good
March 23rd, 1919
Mr. Henry C. Frick: -
Dear Sir: -
Have just read of your recent purchase of a Gilbert Stuart masterpiece of "George Washington," and as I am in possession of a portrait of the same subject by the same artist, dating back in history over one-hundred years, wondered whether you would be interested.
Have literature concerning the painting, and being personal owner through inheritance, would be glad
