My dear Sir
By all means write out to Messr. Appletons & say for £50, they shall be supplied with stereotypes & Electros.1
I have been 3 times to the Heliotype Compy, but without finding any one there to explain to me their estimate.2
I cant help thinking, we misunderstand the matter that instead of impressions they mean negatives or plates but we shall see
Yrs faithfully | Robt. Cooke
