Russell Exhibit to be Continued this Week
To Sir Henry Pellett
Gilcrease Museum
Apgar, Montana Sir Henry Pellett Toronto, Canada Dear Sir: Guy Weadick, the Manager of the Stampede to be held in Calgary, August 25th to 30th, requested I should let you know that Mr. Russell is having another col- lection of his painting there at that time. He also suggested you might possibly like to make an appointment to see the collection before they were open to the Public, as he seemed to think you wished to add to your Russel[sic] collection. I will be glad to show you the work at your con- venience. Very truly, R’D
