0083, B December 8th, 19256. C.T.LOO & COMPANY NEW YORK CHINESE ART PARIS 4| EAST 57 STREET 48 RUE DE COURCELLES TEL PLAZA 32166 NEW YORK CABLE ARCHAIC My dear Prof Karlgren:- First of all I hope that you will excuse me for the deley in answering your letter of November 9th which has followed me here to America but I have been extreme- ly busy opening & new gallery and I em now just beginning to have a little free time so thet I cen answer your letter. I em certeinly surprised to hear that this bronze enimal has been reparked and I never noticed it until you told me. I do not think that you should keep it if you do not want to but if you should decide to keep it I will give you a twenty percent credit on the purchase price which can de epplied to eny object that you might buy for your Museum at some future date. With regerd to the other piece it wes first shown to my friend Yie by Dr Hardt of Berlin who bought it yeers ago. We were both very anxious to buy anything that we could that ceme from Chin T'sun end I went to Berlin and final- 1ly bought it efter meny negotietions and I always thought thet I had bought & very fine monument end I was so proud to have acquired it, so it was & sad älscovery to find that it had been remounted. Neither Mr Yie nor I ever realized the trensformation of this object so please do not publish it es it would be useless under the circumstances end I will explein to the customer whenever I sell it. With regard to the inleid chariot ornaments I en sorry to say that &s this set of eight pieces were found together I feel that I want to keep them as one set. I am glad to heer that you are coming to Re in March and I will look forward to seeing you then. I will the photograph of the bronze animel so in case you return it I can show it to the customer whenever I sell again. Sincerely yours, EST fre Prof B. Kerleren, Ad Ostasietiske Semlingarna Sveavagen 65, Stockholm, Sweden.
