To Karl Alberts 8 October 1879
Down, | Beckenham, Kent.
Oct 8. 1879
Dear Sir,
Mr Murray has forwarded to me your card, as he does not read German. He will supply cliches of the two wood-cuts at a trifling cost. With respect to the phototype I believe that I sent a copy to Dr Krause; any how I have not one left, but could of course procure one1 I much doubt whether it would be possible to make a good copy from a photograph, the price per 1,000 copies of those in the english edition will be £7; for a large size either £7–17s–6d or 8£–2s–6d per 1,000. If you dertermine to have copies printed in England you had better send me the exact size of your page & then Mr Murray could give the order
Dear Sir | Yours faithfully | Ch. Darwin
