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
