Description

Letter from M. Samelson to Reverend I. Leeser, written from New York City on May 23, 1867. Samelson addresses a previous correspondence, noting an apparent misunderstanding about the purpose of some pictures sent to Leeser. He clarifies that the pictures were intended as a gift, not merely samples. He apologizes for imperfections in some of the pictures and proposes to deliver a perfect set during a planned visit to Philadelphia within the coming weeks. Samelson also instructs Leeser to charge the cost of replacing broken glasses and express charges to his account, explaining that the expressman refused prepayment. He mentions plans to bring additional colored and large pictures to Philadelphia if they prove satisfactory.
