Film Posters from the 1930s

[Sarah Teasley]

Dear Sharon,

Thanks so much for the poster leads. Somewhat embarrassingly, I hadn't
thought to call either the Kawasaki City Museum or the NFC, so will be in
touch with them right away. Apparently the Waseda museum is closed until
3/1, so I'll visit them first thing next week.

Are you going to work on Yamagata at all this year? I've quit Doc Box, and
won't be editing the catalogue, but hope to do some translations for them.

Are you still in Tokyo? I hope everything's going well.

Thanks again,

Sarah
