Letter sent to E H Jenkins offering 3 prints by Frank Collier made in 1923 to celebrate the School's 350th anniversary

Transcription:
Dear HM
On one of my many periodic visits to Johnny Clark, [?], who as you know has been very ill for a long time past, he handed me these three pictures which, in turn had been given to him by Miss Collier, an employee of his of many years standing & a daughter of the [?] Frank Collier, an old Art Master. They both thought the School might like to have these prints, and I was asked to pass them on to you.
The history of them, I believe, is that they were prepared for the 350th Anniversary Celebrations & the prints were sold. If the School has no copies of them & you feel that this is a wall of a room, [?] which might look the better for having them hung. I would feel honoured to be allowed to have them framed for the purpose.
If you have a moment to spare -- and I know there aren't many these days -- might I suggest a v brief note from you to Miss Collier; her name is:--
Miss J Gwen Collier
35 York Rd
New Barnet
[?]
Please don't bother to acknowledge this -- I shall be seeing you on Wednesday.
Yours sincerely,
Fred W. [?]
