Gentlemen
We can use 1st reg records but our experience with duplicates has been so unsatisfactory that we did like the suretys of testing and returning such as do not pass muster or are not available from our field. If therefore you will send in say 150, with this privilege we will keep receipt or as soon as we can make the test. Include 12 each of Anvil Polka, [illegible] march + Spanish fandango, for we know these will be good. Rest of our selection, avoiding the metallic ones. View [illegible] nothing about 1st right or other (a few) records from originals of your own taking.
No worries
Very truly,
Ott + [illegible]
