Vienna, 11th September 1918
III, Lothringerstrasse 20, Konzerthaus

Dear Mr. Schiele!

Upon returning from my vacation
I have immediately conferred with my
buyers and today I received an
offer for 8 drawings for a total of 960 c. [crowns].
Please let me know if I can sell the
drawings for this sum.
Since I myself would also love to purchase
2 of your drawings for a price that is
adjusted to my humble means I ask
that you kindly let me know for which price you
would give me the drawings for my small collection.
Should you have a small figural
oil painting to sell in the near future, please send
it to me.
Hoping to hear from you soon,
respectfully,
Josef Krzizek
