Transcript
Bodleian Library | Oxford {1}
15 Nov. 1927
O.B.S.
Dear Dr. McKerrow,
Every member of the O.B.S. has the right to purchase one extra copy of each part of Proceedings. I could treat the application of the Chicago Medical Book Company, therefore, as coming from you and supply the American M.D. with a copy of Pt. 3 {2}. But of course, you might wish to purchase a second copy yourself. What shall we do?
Yours sincerely
S. Gibson
P.S. I should like to add that I heartily congratulate you as the author of An Introduction to Bibliography. We are all deeply indebted to you.
[Direction on envelope:] Dr. R. B. McKerrow | Enderley | Gt. Missenden | (Bucks)
