Edward S. Curtis is readying volumes 6, 7, and 8 of his “Indian books” for delivery. However, he is uncertain if Theodore Roosevelt ever received volume 5 and is checking if Roosevelt has the proceeding five volumes. He designed a cabinet for storing the book set and accompanying folios. If Roosevelt has the space, Curtis will send one.
