Brief aus Kairo vom 03.01.1919 addressiert an Mister Carlyle

Dear Mr. Carlyle,

I am informed that you seek certain knowledge of our land and can perhaps aid you in this. In my posession are singular curios which I most happily believe of interest. These I willingly send for your consideration, if a price can be agreed upon. Naturally, they are ancient and must command a goodly sum. I will arrange matters to your satisfaction when your agent calls at my shop, in the Street of Jackals in the Old Quarter. Until then I remain your most humble servant,

Faraz Najir
