My dear Sir

I return you Reinwald’s letter & beg to inform you that the actual cost of making a set of Electros from the woodcuts in yr new book will be £10.¹

But really you should make these foreign publishers pay more for at the usual rate of charging per inch &c they w^d. be over £40.

Suppose you mentioned £20.

We have a set now ready to go to Stuttgart & sh^d. like to know your feelings as to the German Translation also.

We thought of charging them £25 or £30.

This sum would help to repay your own expenses on the work.

Your wishes as to 60 copies with cut edges shall be attended to.²

The work is to be bound up in green as usual I suppose? What shall the lettering on the back
