Pasadena, California. May 5, 1932. Mr. Willard E. Worden, 312 Stockton Street, San Francisco, California. Dear Sir: Your letter of April 12th, received, advising that one of your customers has two of Mr. Russell’s water colors he wishes to sell. I regret that I am not purchasing any of Charlie’s painting at the present time. I appreciate your calling the matter to my attention and am sorry I am not in a position to purchase anything. I have no doubt your customer will find a purchaser for his pictures without much difficulty. T hank[sic] you again for writing me. Very truly yours, [Transcribed by Lauren B. Gerfen, 2012-12-20]
