Sir,
The Papyrus which I understand you are desirous of having, you will find mentioned in our Catalogue No 6814. It is a very fine one, we could not reduce the price to less than 23£.
You can, if you please send us the Papyrus you wish to part with and we will let you know what we can allow for it in exchange.
We remain, Sir, Your most Obed. Servants
