Letter from Hudson Bay Fur Company to Harry George discussing a collection of items from the "Blonde Eskimos" and whether Harry George is interested.
Dear Sir:-
We have in stock a complete collection of Curios from the blond Eskimos, discovered by Steffanson, containing Fur Clothing, Bows & Arrows, spears, stone lamps & dishes, cooper knives et. cet. If you are interested we will supply you with full particulars.
You may also let us know in what other articles you are interested we may not have anything on hand that may appeal to you, just now, we can keep you advised n the case any interesting articles are received by us.
Should you be interested in Alaska or any old baskets from this section, we could supply you at the present time. We are of the opinion that Baskets will prove the most interesting Curios within a short time, as they are getting extremally scarse & it appears no more are being produced. In many sections whole Tribes have died from the Flue.
Very truly yoursSubject
