December 16, 1927 PGC:EG Mrs. Charles M. Russell, 701 Michigan Boulevard, Pasadena, Calif. Dear Nancy: As yet the two copies of "Back Tracking on the Old Frontier" have not arrived. Just thought I would let you know about it so that in case they have been shipped you can trace them. Following up my letter of the other day I have just heard from the Grand Central Galleries that they have no copies of "The Texas Steer", but that they will be glad to make the exchange for “Sleeping Thunder". am anxious to get hold of "The Texas Steer", will you be kind enough to either see that this is shipped direct to me, or else to them, with instructions to pass it on to me at once? With the special Christmas Greeting in addition to the usual ones which go from our family to yours, Sincerely yours, [signed] Philip
