Dear Mrs Ferlov-Mancoba,
it is now more than eight month ago already that I visited you and your husband in Paris, and I am still working very hard on my Cobra book which I hope to finish this year. 
In the mean time I am participating in the organization of a big international Cobra exhibition in the beautiful modern museum of Rotterdam, the so called “museum Boymans-van Beuningen.”
Of course we want to put also from you something in this exhibition, that will be opened in May this year.
In the catalogue I will write about Cobra in general, and also a little biography on each participating artist.
It is concerning this little biography that I want to ask you something: 
please could you send me as soon as possible some material about your latest activities? perhaps: exhibitions, travels, articles written on you, and important works etc. 
And can you send me also a good photograph of yourself to be reproduced with this little biography?
I thank you very much in advance.
How are you both going on? and how is your son?
I think the wheather in Paris will be as nasty as it is here. 
I wish you and your family a happy new year
Truly yours
Willemijn de Haas
