[Thursday] Pathe Speaker Ad

[David Caldwell]

Chris,

Interesting ads--always fun to read.

I don't think the museum is in the business of buying anything at the
moment; we need to get a handle on all that's here first. After that we can
come up with a list of holes in the collection that would be important to
try to fill, and start to identify where they might come from, gifts or,
last resort, consider a purchase.
