If the Library committee decides to accept it for its permanent collection I would like a formal acknowledgement Very sincerely yours, Chas. Morris Young I would suggest that the painting be cleaned with a little ivory soap and cold water this will not harm it. Very likely the frame would be improved by regilding with a coat of regular gold paint or powder. C.M.Y. [show more]
