0122b / found it also? If the painted ware really reached Honan, one wonders whether it will not be found as far as the sea coast? If it is yours, I should much like to have a slide of it also. I would of course pay all costs, and if possible, would like the "death pattern " vase coloured. If not, Ishould be grateful for a description, or a reference to any accessible printed description. I know only that the death pattern is in red ochre, but possibly other parts of the designs are in black? I wonder if the headless frog design is at all like the design from a bowl from Tepe Alyabad, which, however, I suppose represents a man. (On looking at it again, for tracing, I feel so sure of that, I wish I had not mentioned it ) / With apologies for troubling you and hoping you will only attend to this letter if you can do so conveniently, / Believe me to be, / Yours very sincerely, Wilfrid M. Crompton

0122a / The Manchester Museum / Keeper G. H. CARPENTER, D.Sc / Letters should be addressed : / THE KEEPER OF THE MUSEUM / THE UNIVERSITY / MANCHESTER / Telegrams: / "MUSEUM. UNIVERSITY. MANCHESTER” / Telephone No.: City 4683 / The University of Manchester / 6th September, 1929. / To Professor J.G. Anderssohn, / Sir, / I have just read, with great interest, the abstract of your lecture to the Royal Asiatic Society, delivered last February. As you will see from enclosed, I am lecturing on pottery very shortly. I should much like to refer briefly to your discoveries, in dealing with the early painted ware. I wish to show slides illustrating the furthest range of the painted pottery. I venture to enquire if you would allow me to exhibit a duplicate slide of one of your pots from Kansu. One having the "death pattern" for instance, especially if the same pot had also designs showing the affinity to Susa or other persian sites. Perhaps the "death" pattern itself is found on Persian examples? I wonder if it occurs on any of the pots from Persepolis and Damghan, lately found by Dr. Herzfeld, and illustrated in "The Illustrated London News" of May 25th, 1929. I enclose tracing of one with a peculiar indented pattern. I also send tracing of part of the pattern of a vase figured on the same page, and said to be from Honan, China. This is of course considerably further East than Kansu. I wonder if you
