0103 THE CLEVELAND MUSEUM OF ART CLEVELAND, OHIO, U.S.A. UNIVERSITY CENTER STATION WILLIAM MATHEWSON MILLIKEN, DIRECTOR CABLE ADDRESS: MUSART CLEVELAND December 6, 1938 Dr. B. Karlgren ituseun of Far Eastern Antiquities Stockholm, Sweden Dear Dr. Karlgren: You were most generous to answer my gift of our small Bulletin with a copy of your current excellent publication. Needless to say, I have read your article with a great deal of interest and have certain auestions to ask in this regard. I notice that you refer to our staff head as having come from Chin- ts'un, although the information that I had from Worch, as well as that published by Kimmel in his book on Trilner, states that it was found at Hsin Hsiang in North Honan. I wonder if you have any more definite information. Ineidentally, I hasten to state with regret that we have only one staff nead and not two. So far as I know, there is not another one of this quality in any collection. It is my understanding that one of the pieces belonging to Stoclet probably went at the butt end of the staff, of which ours was the head. Both pieces are repro- duced in the small catalogue of the Chinese show in London at numbers 386 and 387, respectively. I am sending you our bulletin in which I published our piece some years ago. The photographs are not good, but I taought the drawing might help you to comprehend the motifs. Unfortunately, it does not show what is gold and what is silver. I am sending you also our current bulletin with an article on our latest acquisition in the field of Chinese bronzes. Ås soon as I can have them made, I shall send you photographs of our half-dozen most important bronzes, as I should like you to have them for future reference. Again I want to thank you very much for giving me the copy of your bulletin. Professor Seligman showed me his beads when he was here last summer, but said at the tine he had already promised all his reprints to other people. Of course, I am very glad to have his article. Yours very sincerely, HCH:LH
