Title

Elihu Vedder letter to Brentano and bookplate design, 1910 Oct. 11.

Abstract

Vedder writes to [Arthur] Brentano, 11 Oct. 1910, in reference to a bookplate request, noting that ideas are his only stock-in-trade and he usually gets $300.00 for designs, but these are special circumstances and the lady, presumably Brentano's wife, is welcome to use the design; also, print of bookplate, showing a woman curled and sleeping within a designed border, with the motto Let Me Dream in a top banner and the name of the artist's wife, Anita Herriman Vedder, in a lower banner.
