| Dear Mr. Reuter: | |
| I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your help and advice regarding the very large collection of violins submitted to my company. Through an analysis of the instrument schedule your initial opinion was dead on. | |
| After you alerted me to the suspect nature of the collection…underwriters secured an appraisal from Europe confirming the collection as legitimate. Fortunately, underwriters discovered a "scheme" operated in the past and quickly withdrew their quote. | |
|
Your knowledge in this field is remarkable. However, what I find most impressive is your honesty and integrity. Thank you for being the one clear light I found in a very dark corner of the art world. With very best regards, John Tinseth |
