Text of letter: 2 August 1955. Miss Juliette Anderson, 6041 Meridian Street, Los Angeles, 65, California. Dear Juliette: Going thru my collection of films taken over a period of 60 years, I find that I have a great many taken of persons who are not in my family, and I concluded to gather up and send to those whose address I could get, the film that might be of interest to them or their relatives, and found one taken of you at the Iowa State picnic February 24, 1940 (that's the date shown on my envelope, and is probably correct) and enclose it for you. Give my regards to your mother and father and with best wishes I am, Yours cordially, H. H. West. HHW/m
