I may not be in New York5 before the middle of September6. Can you hold the
limited edition7 until then for me to sign? If
not you can send the signatures to me at Denver, Colorado8, so that they will reach me
between August 1st
and 10 6th
I think it would be better to hold the limited edition9, bound or unbound, in New York and let me sign them when I arrived there. I will be in town for a few days during the early part of September—not later than the fifteenth.
Please send two
copies (2) of the book to me at
Hotel Olin10
Denver, Colo.
and hold the rest until I write you where to send them.
I’ll want you to mail them to various friends from your office, later on. But please
send a copy of the commercial edition11 to
Jan Hambourg12
c/o Bank of Montreal
Place Vendome
Paris, France13.
