D[octo]r. A. R. Wallace.
Dear Sir,
We are much obliged by your note of yesterday. Messrs Houlston & Sons2 are prepared to supply us with blocks from Philip’s History of Progress;3 but ask me to let them know which ones we want. If you could limit them to such as would go in our space, it would be desirable, as, though Messrs Houlston are willing to sell us electrotypes,4 they may not be prepared to allow us to make reduced blocks ourselves.
Williams'5 book could be reproduced by photography, [2] though we might ask the publishers of the book if they would supply us electro[type]s, & will do so if you will kindly supply us a list of those you think of using.
Yours very truly
