Short description:
The Italian merchant Giuseppe Caprotti (1862-1919) informs Eduard Glaser (1855-1908) about the conditions he agreed upon with the Italian Arabist Eugenio Griffini (1878-1925) concerning the sale of Arabic manuscripts.
He also asks Glaser to forward him the package of photographs made by the German photographer Hermann Burchardt (1857–1909), as he intends to produce picture postcards.
